Nyemah Lide

When it comes to staying active, the most important thing I do is  to work out a few days a week.

My idea of a perfect day includes  success of a task.

I love my work at the Marriott because  I meet new people from all over the world.

My friends would all agree that I am joyful.

I hope that people will remember me as being helpful and funny, offering great customer service.

Something most people don’t know about the hospitality industry is  how important it is to master customer service while handling so many fine details.

My favorite hobby is chilling with ice cream!

My favorite trip was to Las Vegas.

In my opinion, the most important part of life is my daughter.

When I am seeking a way to relax, I like to sit in a hot tub!

The favorite part of my day is praying with my daughter every morning.

If I won the lottery, My first purchase would be a big home.

If I could go back 20 years and give my former self life advice, I would tell myself “take time to smell the roses.”

Something most people don’t know about me is I love crafting.

My favorite aspect of the fall in Virginia is the colorful trees.

If I ever could teach a class on any topic, it would be a class about how to love oneself.
