Education

Diploma, Hotel Management

A Diploma in Hotel Management from the American Hospitality academy along with a hands on experience of working as a night Audit & front office at the Historic Inns of Annapolis - Maryland /USA. Throughout the internship program we have to finish twenty course in the hospitality industry, and by the end of the internship program students have to finish all courses and pass all quizzes related. The combination of study and work enabled me to gain more experience in the field of hotel management and since Annapolis is considered one of the historic and touristic areas in Maryland /USA, we had a busy schedule at the hotel all around the year which also effected my performance and ability to work under pressure.
