Profil professionnel

Dynamic, self-motivated sales leader with a passion for luxury hospitality, global markets, and creating exceptional travel experiences. A results-driven, multilingual, and culturally adept sales professional with over 20 years of experience in the luxury hospitality industry, specializing in global sales, business development, and strategic market positioning. Throughout my career, I have worked with renowned 5-star luxury hotels and resorts across the EMEA region, with a strong focus on leisure segments in Europe, the UK, Turkey, and the Seychelles. My expertise extends across FIT, group, and wholesale markets, ensuring tailored, high-impact sales strategies that drive revenue growth and brand positioning. As a proactive and strategic sales expert, I thrive on identifying new business opportunities, cultivating high-value partnerships, and enhancing client engagement. My deep understanding of luxury travel trends, combined with a strong network within the industry, allows me to navigate competitive landscapes effectively while delivering exceptional guest experiences. A curious epicurean and passionate world traveler, I embrace cultural diversity and continuously seek new ways to connect people with extraordinary destinations and unique experiences.
