My professional training was obtained at the Culinary Institute of Lebanon. I also have completed advanced management training courses through E Cornel & Harvard while I was in Four Season Hotel Riyadh.
My objective is to remain in the Middle East and find a new employer, in a food service or hospitality venture, who will benefit from my expertise, commitment and enthusiasm. My international and multi-lingual and cultural skills, in Arabic, English and French, will be highly effective in delivering quality service to a multi-national clientele and managing a diverse team.
I learned from my experience that in business and day to day operation “Winner never quite & quitter never win” while in F&B “Life is too short for average food” and in Sales and Marketing “Some will, some won't, so what?”
