This passion drove me to Johnson & Wales University where I graduated <br />with a Bachelors €TMs Degree in Hotel Management. While in college and in my professional <br />career I have been involved with Visitors Bureaus across North Carolina and South Carolina <br />including Charleston, Charlotte, Raleigh, Durham, Pinehurst/Moore County and Orange County. <br />Each of these bureaus was very different from size, demographics, leadership and involvement <br />with the community. In each of these I was able to contribute my own expertise and collaborate <br />on many projects. I feel that this experience and my youthfulness would be a great asset to the <br />Chapel Hill /Orange County Visitors Bureau Board. <br />Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br />While working in Orange County beginning in 2010 1 have been active in participating in Orange <br />County Visitor Bureau events and bringing new business to Orange County through our <br />Residence Inn by Marriott Chapel Hill. Now as the General Manager I hope to use this <br />experience to help advise on new marketing plans, community events, and business plans to <br />improve the economic activity and quality of life in the community. <br />Conflict of Interest: <br />As General Manager of the Residence Inn by Marriott Chapel Hill my role is to create a safe <br />workplace for my associates, a wonderful stay for my guest, and drive revenues for the hotel. I <br />do not see this hindering my role on this board. <br />Supplemental Questions: <br />
