My qualifications include a BA (Hons) in Hospitality Management & Tourism from the University of Strathclyde, complemented by a career spanning hotel management, quality assurance, education, and business ownership.
 
Notable roles include F&B Manager of the internationally acclaimed Huka Lodge and founder/operator of Quest Rotorua Central, a purpose-built property that consistently achieved national recognition on TripAdvisor and sustained occupancy above 84% prior to its successful sale.
