❊ About GK
I often refer to my homeland, Greece, as the "birthplace of hospitality." The reason lies deep within its history.
Meet me, a Greek-American hospitality enthusiast who has turned his passion into a lifelong career. Growing up in Athens, one of the world's most popular tourist destinations, I quickly learned to appreciate the beauty of diverse cultures and personalities. With an innate love for hospitality, I was always eager to make new friends and create unforgettable experiences for those around me.
At 18, I moved to the Big Apple to attend the College of Technology, where I pursued my passion for hospitality management. With certifications in Food & Beverage Cost Control, Operations Management, Culinary Arts, and Hospitality Management, I was well-equipped to take on the competitive industry.
Over the last 18 years, I have honed my skills and built a reputation as a top-level hospitality professional at prestigious establishments across the East Coast. From The Walt Disney Company to Morton's Steakhouse, The Boro Hotel to Beebe's, Hungry Pop and Avra Madison Estiatoro, I have left my mark in the industry, delivering impeccable service to satisfied guests.
While I still reside in NYC during the winter and summer months to assist my corporate clients in planning events, I return to my homeland in the late summer/ early fall to share my love for Greece with visitors. As a native-born and raised Greek who speaks English with an American accent, I provide an authentic experience that combines my knowledge of local cuisine and culture.
