Personal Interests:
One of my favorite pastimes is reading. It ensures that I am keeping myself open to new ideas and perspectives. I also enjoy luxury travel and fine dining. Visiting several countries around the world has enhanced my experiences of many different cultures along with experiencing their approaches to service around accommodations and food and beverage. However, my all-time favorite thing to do is spending time with my three grandchildren in person or via video chatting.
