About

I build vibrant, high-impact hospitality communities that foster connection, exclusivity, and business growth. Previously as the Membership Director at Chouchou Dubai, I lead strategic membership initiatives, curating experiences that transform hospitality spaces into thriving networks. With expertise in brand partnerships, membership development, and guest engagement, I drive growth and innovation across luxury hospitality. My recent tenure at Soho House & Co honed my skills in curating exclusive experiences and expanding networks within new territories. The essence of my mission lies in crafting a space that resonates with the spirit of the creative industries, fostering a sense of belonging, and leveraging my expertise to elevate our brand's presence on a global stage.
