About Leonardo Hotels

MY BACKGROUND

A view of the whole hotel.

At NOVUM Hospitality, I spent more than twelve years as CIO, responsible for IT and business processes. In 2022, I moved into asset management and business development as CDO. I then served as CDO at Revo Hospitality Group before working as an independent hotel advisor.

At NOVUM and Revo, I was involved in M&A transactions and financing, including discussions with banks. That experience informs my work at Leonardo Hotels today.
