My Knightlife

In the beginning of last semester I was looking for a new internship in revenue management. I had just finished my internship at the Resort at Singer Island working in the Front office doing guest services, concierge, front desk, and night audit. I needed to try something new. So I contacted the Ritz Carlton and everything was working out perfectly. I had been on site, filled out all the paper work, met with the director of revenue management and then I got the phone call one day informing me that I didn’t fit in their budget.

After that I tried something at the Boca Resort and Club, but with my intense schedule at the end of the semester it was a challenge to get something started. This semester I finally got one lined up. I just received the paperwork from the hotel and I am really looking forward to it. I will be working at the Atlantic Resort and Spa in Fort Lauderdale.

After recently working with Dr. Downey on created the Hospitality Financial and Technology Professionals Club (HFTP) on campus, engaging in an internship in revenue management is perfect. I will be the first individual in the Hospitality Management College to take part in an internship in the field of accounting.
