Anthony Santa Maria, Product Manager, Optii Solutions, said: “Growing up in Guatemala where technology has not had the same speed of development as other parts of the world, I have always had a keen interest in technologies that support the underserved. Housekeeping and hotel operations have often been on the back burner for many hotels, but it plays such a crucial role in helping to provide a good guest experience and increase job satisfaction. I am looking forward to applying my experience in Machine Learning and AI to Optii’s products and to bringing hotel operations into the spotlight and top of the priority list.”

Katherine Grass, CEO, Optii Solutions, said: “We’re thrilled to welcome Santa Maria to our product team at Optii. We are continuing to build our team in the Austin headquarters and Santa Maria’s experience in Machine Learning and AI will be fundamental in helping us to strengthen our products and meet the needs of our customers.”
