Summary

Completed a six-month internship at Meliá Villaitana, part of Meliá Hotels International, where I apply the skills acquired during my TQM Master (Tourism Quality Management).

My work in the MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, Exhibitions) and Guest Experience departments has strengthened my expertise in event management, guest services, and problem resolution.

This experience, combined with a week of practical training aboard Costa Crociere, has enhanced my operational skills and earned me certifications in Event Management, Revenue Management, and Sales & Marketing.

In 2023, I refined my customer service and attention to detail through the "Star Service" program at Viking College, including training aboard a Viking River Cruise.

Passionate about hospitality and ready to contribute actively, even in short-term roles, with energy, precision, and a strong commitment to guest satisfaction
