Expert Task Force Manager & F&B Specialist with Multi-Brand
I am a seasoned Task Force Manager with over 10 years of experience working across multiple renowned hotel brands such as Marriott, Hilton, and Hyatt. My expertise lies in enhancing Food & Beverage (F&B) programs, developing staff, and improving guest satisfaction scores significantly. I have successfully led teams to exceed service expectations, optimize costs, and drive revenue growth through innovative menu development and strategic management. During my tenure as a Director of Banquets at Charleston Place Hotel, I increased guest satisfaction scores (SALT Scores) from 33% to 89% within a month by enhancing service standards and implementing innovative food programs. As a Task Force Manager for Dimension Development, I supported various properties nationwide, providing interim management solutions and mentoring teams to strengthen their operational performance. I excel in managing teams across different departments, including culinary, housekeeping, and banquets, to ensure a seamless guest experience. I am also proficient in Micros, Aloha, and Silverware POS systems, and have a vast knowledge of wine services and beverage programs. My goal is to help hotels improve key KPIs such as Occupancy Rate, ADR, and Guest Satisfaction Scores by implementing efficient service models and creative strategies.
