Summary

I am a driven and passionate hospitality professional currently completing my final internship at Hotel La Butte aux Bois as a Sales Manager Trainee. I thrive in dynamic environments and aim to continually develop myself both personally and professionally. I will graduate from the Hotel Management School Maastricht in September 2025 and am seeking a new professional opportunity in Thailand from the end of October. My long-term goal is to grow into a leadership position within the international hospitality industry, contributing meaningfully to both guests and teams.
