I am a shareholder and Director of two award-winning suite hotels in downtown Ottawa, Canada The Albert at Bay Suite Hotel Best Western Plus Victoria Park Suites. I bring over years experience in hotel management operations and hoteltravel related web applications to my work in hospitality. My involvement with hotels began in , when I managed the conversion of the Albert at Bay Suite Hotel from apartments to a -unit, four-star suite hotel. Several years later, I oversaw the opening of the Victoria Park Suites Hotel and directed its conversion to a Best Western member property. To complete these conversions, I implemented computerized hotel management systems, hired and trained staff, established HR policies and procedures, and repositioned both hotels in the market, overseeing branding, marketing and sales activities. While continuing to be involved in the success of these hotels, in I pioneered several web-based applications with a focus on e-solutions for the hotel and travel sectors, and launched businesses to bring them to market. As President and CEO of Spyre Infostructure Inc., I oversaw the development of BOOKDirect, a business-to-consumer (bc) hotel reservations system. I then developed and launched CrewStay, a business-to-business (bb) solution aimed at the aviation industry for managing hotel contracts and booking crew accommodations. In defining and maintaining the creative, functional and entrepreneurial visions of these solutions, I honed my problem-solving skills and enhanced my knowledge of branding, e-commerce, business development, and creative social media marketing, with a particular emphasis on understanding the limits and possibilities of Web application spaces. Although my work with Spyre Infostructure underlines my aptitude for defining business process, software design and development, I am well-positioned to carry my marketing, business development and business operations skills into in any sector.
