As the Director of Marketing, I bring over a decade of expertise in brand management, strategic marketing, and public relations within the hospitality industry. In my current role, I lead initiatives to enhance brand visibility, drive revenue-generating campaigns, and position the hotel as a leading destination in the region. Prior to this, I spent six successful years with Marriott Hotels, where I held key marketing and PR roles at renowned properties such as Marriott Hotel Al Forsan Abu Dhabi, JW Marriott Marquis City Center Doha, and The Westin Cairo Golf Resort & Spa. During this time, I led transformative marketing efforts that elevated brand presence and guest engagement. My professional journey reflects a commitment to innovation, collaboration, and storytelling, with a strong focus on creating memorable guest experiences and achieving measurable business outcomes.
