Career

Bachelor Hospitality Management – 2005 – Miami

Gregory Polino - GM W South Beach Hotel
Steve Wood - Multi-entrepreneur and founder of the 4-star Hotel Maison Nô

In the first year of my studies, getting some experience working in a luxury hotel was essential, so I chose bar work at the Ritz in Paris.  To gain more responsibility, I then worked as assistant food service manager at the Beau-Rivage Palace in Lausanne during my second-year placement.  It’s an absolutely sublime location, serving a demanding and prestigious clientele, and which also organises a number of events.  In the third and final year, I wanted to move up a notch to work in a leading international hotel.  In the end, it was the Pudong Shangri-La Shanghai hotel that offered me an opportunity as manager of the VIP Lounge.  This opened up a whole new world to me and I finally spent an extra few months in the region to open the Graffiti restaurant in the Shanghai French concession.
