About Angela Arthur
With a career spanning back to 1993, I began in the restaurant industry, honing my sales skills and progressing through various managerial roles. In 2004, I ventured into entrepreneurship, founding Noble Travel, where I transitioned from a travel agent to the Operations Manager of a host travel agency. The subsequent decade saw me exploring diverse business development roles, collaborating with notable entities like Funjet and Crocs Resort & Casino in Jaco, Costa Rica.(highly recommend!) The landscape shifted with the onset of COVID-19, prompting a reevaluation of my trajectory. This pivotal moment led me towards the hotel industry, offering a fresh perspective from the other side of the desk. Joining Elite Hospitality Group, I found a professional home where my extensive background and insights into the hospitality sector converge. Proudly contributing to Elite, I bring a wealth of experience and a unique blend of skills, shaped by years of diverse roles and challenges across the dynamic landscape of the travel and hospitality industry.
