Please tell us about your previous experiences.

The dual experience has allowed me an insight into the functionality of the hospitality industry and makes me consider all the aspects while negotiating a lead. I have had the opportunity to work with Choice Hotels International, Best Western India, Tulip Star Country, and Pride Hotels & Resorts. My keys task has always been in generating revenue and resulting in profit. I believe this is critical for all businesses and the hospitality industry is no different.
