His approach to international hospitality management and culinary expertise brought a new vision and excellence to food & beverage concepts in more than 12 countries for multi-award winning resorts in ultra-luxury segment as: One & Only Reethi Rah (Maldives), Jumeirah (UAE), La Réserve (Switzerland), Baker’s Bay Golf & Ocean Club (Bahamas), Opera Hotel & Donbass Palace (Ukraine), First IHG (Portugal) and Kenzi (Morocco).
