The Point is a 5 star resort that is a member of the prestigious Relais & Chateaux.

I managed the Maintenance, Grounds and Boat House departments. I planned and prepared work schedules, created job descriptions and standard operating procedures.

My team was instrumental in helping to maintain our 5 star status. My team always consisted of up to 12 employees that I continually trained and managed. Our ultimate goal as a department and a property was to always exceed expectations.
