What would you say your greatest achievement has been?
In recent times, it would be the opportunity to manage a reputable 5-star hotel such as Amwaj Rotana in Dubai. I was previously in Aqaba, Jordan, which is not directly comparable to Dubai since Dubai is a more dynamic city.
What legacy would you like to eventually leave at your hotel?

I would like to be remembered as someone who delivered what he promised. Fulfilling a commitment where it be for stakeholders or staff is something I hold in high regard.
What one piece of advice would you give to someone starting off in the industry?
Steve Jobs has a famous saying which goes, “The only way to do great work is to love what you do,” and he couldn’t be more precise. If it doesn’t come from the heart, there’s less chance for you to be successful.
If you hadn’t gone into hospitality, what do you think you would be doing now?
I would be a pilot. Until this day, flying sparks my interest.
What do you like to do in your spare time?
I love discovering new places and trying different trends. Lucky for me, I’m in Dubai, which is a haven in this region for all sorts of F&B concepts.
