Bio
Felix Maldonado
Mirian is the consummate Hospitality professional. Notice that I didn't say Sales professional because Mirian is much more than an excellent Sales professional. She is truly an all around leader in Hospitality. Mirian builds effective teams by embracing what is special about each individual and then honing it to fine degree. She fosters interdepartmental cooperation by assisting other leaders using her wealth of experience as a guide. She mentors other leaders and is not afraid to address difficult issues head on to obtain the best results. She is proficient in all financial aspects of property operations up to the ownership level. Most of all, Mirian is curious and is always eager to learn more and expand her knowledge beyond her day to day responsibilities. Overall it was an honor and a positive experience to have worked with her and I would value the opportunity to do so in the future. I highly recommend Mirian for any position in the hospitality industry.

I had the pleasure of being Mirian's Sales Manager at the Hilton Garden Inn Times Square South. I was honored to be part of her team and to be able to learn from someone as knowledgeable Mirian. Not only did she take the time to listen to my concerns and needs but she always made herself available as a resource whenever I needed it. Mirian has a very hands on approach and with her experience in operations and sales, she is an asset for any company. Mirian is very passionate about her work and she will do any task at hand with excellence. I will not hesitate to work with Mirian again. She is truly one of the best in this industry.
