Check-in into 55; where every project gets the five-star treatment. Name inspired by room numbers and the gold standard of hospitality, our name reflects seamless service and attention to details.

The Five-Star Treatment, Decoded.

Most consultants look at your business through a spreadsheet. We look at it through the eyes of your guests and the hands of your staff.

At Check-in into 55, our name is a tribute to the gold standard of hospitality - where every detail is intentional and every interaction is seamless. We don’t just "fix" hotels; we craft psychological experiences that drive loyalty and operational excellence.

What Makes Us Different?

  • The View from the Lobby (Not the Clouds): With 10 years as an GM or CEO, I’ve lived the "real life" of hospitality. I know the 2:00 AM challenges, the staffing hurdles and the operational friction that a textbook can’t teach you.

  • The Science of the Guest: We integrate human behavior studies into every strategy. By understanding the why behind guest actions, we help you design environments and service flows that feel intuitive, luxury, and unforgettable.

  • The Powerhouse Team: We bridge the gap between back-of-house grit and front-of-house glamour. Team of marketing and branding experts ensures your operational excellence is matched by a standout, world-class brand.

Unforgettable hospitality begins with meaningful connections.

With over a decade of hands-on experience in running hotels, developing luxury glamping resorts and building hospitality brands, I’ve learned that success isn’t just about design or service- it’s about creating moments that stay with people long after they leave. My background in anthropology and systemic psychotherapy helps me understand how guests interact with spaces, what makes them feel at home, and what turns a visit into a lasting memory.

At 55, I blend hospitality expertise, marketing, and branding to craft 5-star guest experiences that feel personal, immersive, and unforgettable. Whether launching a new project, refining operations, or building a standout brand, my approach is centered on people.

”Specialty coffee lover, wine and speakeasy-bar seeker, judging a room by the bathrobe quality and whether dogs are welcome.”

I truly believe hospitality is the heart of every experience. Without it, all you have are beautiful investments and empty rooms. Hospitality is about connection - it’s about creating spaces where people feel seen, welcomed, and inspired. I believe the most memorable experiences happen when every sense is engaged - when guests can see, feel and even smell the essence of a place.
