ALEXANDRU - SORIN IONESCU
FOUNDER AND CEO
At the time i am writing this i have turned 48 being blessed by God's grace with a good spouse and the sweetest girl in the world. You can call me Alexandru. Old friends and acquaintances still call me Sorin. Besides hospitality, my passions revolve around mountain biking, backcountry skiing and byzantine music (chanting with the psaltic group Nectarie Protopsaltul).
I graduated “Politehnica” University Bucharest – Engineering Sciences German Department and the German College, Goethe in Bucharest, and continued my higher education with the Royal Foundation of Hospitality Management post-graduate diploma signed in 2007 by Her Royal Highness The Princess Margarita of Romania and Mr. Ruud Reuland – General Director of Ecole Hoteliere de Lausanne (EHL). My career began in 1998 experiencing 2 multinational strategy consulting companies: Cap Gemini and Roland Berger Strategy Consulting.
2003 offered me the opportunities to follow my dream on the entrepreneurship path. Along with the hotel tourism and leisure experience that i started to build in 2004, i am grateful to prior industry experiences that have offered me the much needed lateral thinking and problem solving skills. Methodological competencies in fields like hotel development, hotel asset management, M&A, financial management, organization/ sop, marketing and sales, procurement, HR…help me to always create and coordinate services adapted to the needs of each individual client. I speak fluently English and German.
I’ve also been teaching a Financial Management course as a Lecturer of the American Hotel Academy in Brasov for 8 years and a video recording of the course is available for purchase on the Fivestar Academy page.
