Coastal Hotel Group came to me when they managed Hotel 21 East and asked me to come work for them - traveling to new properties they signed management contracts with...and implementing sales procedures and structures within the on-property sales offices. Would usually spend 2-4 weeks working with the Coastal Hotel Group team initiating positive changes for the overall property. Cheeca Lodge, Hotel Jerome, Stein Erikson Lodge, The Highlands Inn.......all amazing experiences.

Spending summers on Nantucket with our family, I began working at age 12. Chambermaid at Christman Cottages, Summer girl, cashier at The Sweet Shop, waitressed at Arno's, bartended at Easy Street, waitressed at The Tavern, tennis girl at Miacomet Tennis and waitressed at The White Elephant. Post graduation - spent the summer/fall as assistant Dining Room Manager at The White Elephant. Learned everything about the restaurant business by working with all types of people. Fine-tuned my customer relation skills....gave me a hands-on appreciation for smiling, knowing the customer is always right and confidently thinking on my feet. 'The only bad decision is no decision at all'. Worked double shifts to contribute monies towards high school and college tuition. LOVED every minute of it - hard work - met talented people and worked alongside the creme of the crop in f/b. Show less
