Irina’s relationship with Bella Viságe began as a client in 2019. One day we were racking our brains to find a Spanish-speaking receptionist and we thought about Irina. We quickly asked her to join the team, as her professionalism and business mindset was apparent, even though she was still in high school at the time. Since her first day, she has gone above and beyond for our clients and her coworkers. Her attention to detail and truly caring demeanor with clients and spa operations is remarkable.
Irina is the epitome of the Ritz-Carlton level of customer service that we strive to achieve at Bella Viságe. She serves as our Director of Spa Operations and the Supervisor of our Guest Relations Team, and we couldn’t be more proud of her growth.
