BANQUET MANAGER
ABOUT ME
I am a Marketing and Management graduate currently working as a Banquet Manager in the luxury hospitality industry. Throughout my academic and professional journey, I have developed a strong interest in creating memorable guest experiences, managing high-end events, and understanding the power of strategic communication.
​
My passion for marketing goes beyond theory—I am particularly drawn to how digital platforms and creative storytelling shape brand perception. I actively explore the worlds of social media and photography, using them as tools to express ideas, capture meaningful moments, and communicate visually compelling narratives.
This creative side allows me to bring a fresh perspective to hospitality and event management, where aesthetics and emotion play a vital role. I am driven by continuous learning and always seek to improve myself both personally and professionally. Whether it's optimizing guest satisfaction, curating digital content, or supporting brand engagement strategies, I thrive in dynamic environments where innovation and attention to detail come together.
Looking ahead, I aim to further integrate my background in hospitality with my creative interests in marketing and content creation, with the goal of building a meaningful career in luxury brand experiences on a global scale.
