How did you get started with Fort Wood Hotels? I began my journey with Fort Wood Hotels on April 29th, 2009 when I excitedly got to start my first job as a housekeeper at the Fairfield Inn. In 2011, I got promoted as the Executive Assistant at Hampton Inn. After a little over 10 months, I transitioned back to the Fairfield Inn as the Executive Housekeeper until 2015, when I moved to Front Desk Manager. In February 2020, I was promoted to General Manager. When starting at Fort Wood Hotels, I did not envision myself to be in the position I am in today. I am so proud and blessed to be a part of the Fort Wood Hotels…
