Julien Psomas
As Julien was studying for his BA Hons in Marketing in bonny Scotland, he discovered hospitality, its rhythm, its multicultural pool of talents, its long shifts, and the passion behind all this. Beside his studies, he worked in banqueting in St Andrews and later as a bartender. Julien quickly became team leader and got the opportunity to be the head server when serving some members of the Royal family.
Julien decided to continue his studies and enrol for an MBA in Hospitality Management in one of the most prestigious hospitality school, L’ École Supérieure de Savignac.
Julien spent the following 8 years working for renown international chains like Hilton, Marriott, Rocco Forte and Sandton hotel. He gained knowledge in leadership, supervision, and management as he worked in different hotel departments throughout the years.
He also got some experience in the wine and spirit business, which became useful when he moved to Vietnam in 2016. Julien has worked as a sales account manager in the wine distribution for three years in Hanoi before joining the team of RMIT. On the way, he got the certification in WSET 2, and CELTA diploma. His next step is to become a certified Sake sommelier.
