Bio
Nikki Esposito
I had the pleasure of working alongside Juan Carlos as a Sales Training Manager at Marriott. I've watched him develop and progress into a solid trainer with great expertise. He had a can-do attitude and was always willing to help his teammates. Juan Carlos partnered well with leaders in the organization to address learning gaps and creatively sought out ideas that worked for everyone. Being a strong team player and go-getter, Juan Carlos would be a welcomed addition to any team!

I supervised Juan Carlos' thesis on the correlation between the success of the WorldCup in Germany in 2010 and the destination branding campaign. Juan Carlos is a very dedicated, creative, hard-working professional with excellent marketing skills. I can recommend Juan Carlos to any company looking for a person eager to learn and ambitious to succeed in the tourism-industry.
