Summary

After 7 years of leadership and management experience in hospitality industry, I found myself having a strong passion for wines. WSET level 2 was passed with Distinction last year and I am also preparing to do WSET level 3 commencing in May. I am a proactive, organised and professional individual with an enthusiasm to learn new things. Always paying attention to the details and caring for others. I am looking to have my new chapter working more close to wine and beverage sector with my solid customer service skill.
