About | Hospitality has always felt like a magical world to me. It allows me to create far more than a new project or a new space. It gives me the chance to bring experiences to life. What inspires me most is the ability to shape moments that stay with people long after they leave. At Katikies, we focus on genuine warmth, authenticity, and heartfelt service. I believe that hospitality is not just an industry but a craft that blends creativity, empathy, and dedication. At the end of the day, nothing is more rewarding than seeing a smile on someone’s face because of something I helped create.

Profession | General Manager at Katikies Hotels

Achievements | I was honored to be among the winners of the Leading Hotels Membership Awards 2023, where I received the “Uncommon Vision” award. I am very proud of this nomination and of the distinction I have been able to make within the local community and the wider hospitality industry. The recognition reflects my dedication to Greek hospitality, the innovative initiatives we have developed at the hotel, and the projects aimed at preserving Santorini’s cultural and gastronomic heritage.
