Hotel (front office) professional by day, daydreamer by night. Prerequisites include but not limited to: a positive demeanor for positive exchanges, a vast knowledge of amenities and services, a natural inclination towards helping fellow human beings, patience, confidence, an ability to carry oneself with dignity and pride, all that and much more while embracing all walks of life and consistency in treating everyone with a basic level of respect. An industry I've been a part of for eight years during which time I learned the many facets it carries, some lesser known than others looking to share on some of it on this page.

Signing up to support me will ensure:

*when rent is paid there is enough left to cover the utilities

*when paying the grocery bills there is less bite

*when taking ourselves out for a movie we can afford the popcorn

*we would be less anxious during a time when hours are being cut due to organically occurring lower travel, business or otherwise this year worsened by 51st state talk and overall negative image.

Added bonus will be sharing tips and tricks on how to navigate the industry with ease, inside and outside of it. Would you like to cut down the time in which it takes to reserve a room? Enroll into their loyalty program and provide the membership number during the booking process, that will answer ten of their questions right of the bat. Would you like to score an upgrade to a room with a view while not breaking your bank? Be kind, have a conversation, listen, pay attention and if you're lucky you may be the lucky beneficiary of one, if not some of us out there have been properly empowered to make offers often times very few could refuse. Card declines and need to check in before day's end? Instead of being turned away, an establishment worth their salt will offer the option to send out a credit card authorization form that when processed in a timely manner it might just save the day.

For the amount of dedication and consistency some of us show the industry doesn't really come close to ensuring we are taken care of, this page might make things a little bit more even. If our paths have happened to have crossed please share a little bit about it. It will most certainly make my day,
