Recent Work History….

Prior to being a Lead Analyzer I was the Director of Event Sales at Embassy Suites San Marcos. I was with the property for almost 10 years. I began at the property as a temp in the HR Office. I was hired on permanently as Reservations Supervisor. From there I was GRC, Revenue Manager, Senior Event Sales Manager, and finally Director. Although I was sad to see that door close, I am excited to be part of the ESOTeam. I enjoy what I’m doing and blessed to have the opportunity.
