With over three decades of senior-level experience in the Hospitality and Tourism industry, I offer specialised expertise in the acquisition, operation, and divestment of accommodation and tourism-focused assets. My qualifications include a BA (Hons) in Hospitality Management & Tourism from the University of Strathclyde, complemented by a career spanning hotel management, quality assurance, education, and business ownership.
Notable roles include F&B Manager of the internationally acclaimed Huka Lodge and founder/operator of Quest Rotorua Central, a purpose-built property that consistently achieved national recognition on TripAdvisor and sustained occupancy above 84% prior to its successful sale. I have also held quality assurance roles with VisitScotland, Qualmark New Zealand, and contributed to the development of an internal assessment frameworks for TOP 10 Holiday Parks.
My in-depth understanding of operational performance drivers, market positioning, and investor expectations allows me to accurately assess the long-term commercial viability of hospitality and tourism properties.
Now operating within the commercial real estate sector, I apply this extensive industry insight to support clients seeking to maximise value, mitigate risk, and unlock the full potential of their tourism-related investments.
