Rugby, Voyage, Read, Food&Wine and Discovery

Rugby has taught me the importance of teamwork, resilience, and leadership. On the field, I learned to make quick decisions and support my teammates, qualities I bring to managing teams and tackling complex projects.

Travel is my endless source of discovery and inspiration. Each destination I visit offers fresh perspectives, fueling my creativity and enhancing my ability to adapt to diverse cultures and environments—an essential skill in the hospitality industry.

Reading represents a constant pursuit of knowledge and growth. From classics to contemporary literature, I find inspiration to approach challenges with a broader and more structured perspective.

Food and wine are not just a passion but the cornerstone of my career. I continuously explore flavors and techniques, driven by a desire to deliver memorable and innovative experiences to my guests.

Discovery, in all its forms, is the engine of my personal and professional growth. Every new experience is an opportunity to learn, improve, and face challenges with energy and determination.
