Me
Goals
Job satisfaction comes with constant creative challenge and the freedom to search for more efficient ways of running an operation.
All my life I have wondered about what kind of legacy I would leave. I have the desire to get involved by showing our next generation leaders how to look after earth’s resources and still be successful. My passion is to influence Education Programs to make Environmental Teachings part of the National Curriculum.
Interests
Interests: Art, Fitness and Hiking
Achievements
Guest experience ratings would increase under my management.
A listing as one of the top 50 Lodges by Conde Nast Travel
Regrettably my biggest failure was when I was unable to facilitate a successful outcome between HQ and our employees.
Strengths & Weaknesses
Strengths & WeaknessesGoals
My strengths are my passion for people, admin skills & my natural hospitality abilities. My weakness is my social skills, especially when doing public speaking. To better myself, I have been involved with some Human Rights associations and Charities (a passion of mine) and push myself to overcome my stage fright.
