Hello, I'm Maria Jose.
I'm a 21-year-old Colombian who loves mixing cocktails and exploring the world. Whether I'm shaking up drinks or dancing salsa, I'm all about making connections and discovering new adventures!
At 18, I embarked on my journey at a Cancun hostel, honing valuable customer service skills and learning to create a welcoming environment for guests from all parts of the world. Following this, I moved to the U.S. as an Au Pair, where I further developed adaptability and communication while caring for children and managing household tasks. During this time, I also managed guest communications, bookings, and property maintenance with Opulent Properties in Colorado Springs. I optimized listings, implemented dynamic pricing strategies, and executed marketing plans to enhance occupancy and revenue. My responsibilities included overseeing cleaning and repairs, ensuring exceptional guest experiences, and maintaining high standards. Inspired by my passion for bartending and a desire to deepen my skills in hospitality, I am now focused on pursuing opportunities in this field while continuing to deliver excellence in every aspect of my work.
