Describe your role at Kalahari Resorts & Conventions.

I work closely with an experienced leadership team to ensure that all guests who are staying at our 890-room resort are having a safe and enjoyable experience during their stay. We lead a team of associates from all over the world to make sure operations are running smoothly and efficiently in both the hotel and entertainment divisions of our resort.

What do you enjoy about your job?

Kalahari is a vacation destination that attracts millions of guests per year. I thoroughly enjoy meeting guests from many different countries and cultures from across the globe. I like having the opportunity to mentor my associates to ensure they are being set up for success. Seeing my team succeed reminds me of my own success.  

What were your favorite Point Park experiences?

One specific experience that I found to be extremely valuable was the Disney Leadership Seminar that was led by professors Patrick Mulvihill, Sandra Mervosh and Mark Voortman. I attended the seminar in 2018 and 2019, and I believe the knowledge gained throughout has been an integral part of my success thus far.

How did the Sports, Arts & Entertainment Management program help prepare you professionally?

The professors are always working to find the most immersive, career-building experiences that will help the students gain valuable knowledge that can be used throughout their careers.

Why would you recommend Point Park to a prospective student?

The experience gained during my time at Point Park is unmatched. Each course is curated to offer the highest quality of education that is available. On top of that, the professors remain in contact with important individuals within the industry to add an extra level of immersion into each course.
