MIAMI, FL. August 6, 2015 - CasaMagna Marriott Puerto Vallarta Resort & Spa is proud to announce the appointment of Ruby Ochoa as the new Director of Sales and Marketing. In her new role, Ms. Ochoa will oversee all marketing initiatives for the resort, and work closely with management to determine sales strategies across relevant market segments in order to grow awareness and maximize revenues.

Ruby is returning to her native country after a successful tenure as Cluster Director of Sales for the JW Marriott in Lima, Peru and overseeing the opening of the JW Marriott Hotel El Convento Cusco. Bringing more than 10 years of experience in sales management, Ms. Ochoa has been a part of the Marriott family since 2008 when she was hired as a Cluster Sales Manager for JW Marriott Cancun Resort & Spa and CasaMagna Marriott Cancun Resort.

“Ruby's proven leadership and familiarity with the Marriott brand is invaluable,” said David Gauna, General Manager of CasaMagna Marriott Puerto Vallarta. “Her proficiency for revenue generation, creative innovation and passion for Mexico will be key to our success and we're very happy to have Ruby as part of our executive team.”

Ms. Ochoa was recognized with the “Manager of the Year” award in 2009 and the “President Circle Award” in 2010 for exceeding her sales goals. A promotion in 2013 to Cluster Director of Sales for the JW Marriott Lima hotel offered Ruby the opportunity to open the JW Marriott Hotel El Convento Cusco and lead the team to successfully position the hotel as a top destination in Peru.

“I'm happy to return to Mexico and very excited about the opportunities in this beautiful part of my country,” said Ms. Ochoa. “I look forward to working with the CasaMagna Marriott Puerto Vallarta team to continue growing awareness to drive more travelers to experience all of the culture, beauty and friendliness of Puerto Vallarta.”

Ruby holds a Bachelor's Degree in Hospitality Business & Tourism from the Instituto Tecnologico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, Mexico. Prior to joining the Marriott family, she worked for Hotelbeds in Cancun, Mexico, Disney Grand Floridian Resort & Spa in Orlando, and Royal Caribbean International in Miami. Ruby is fluent in Spanish, English, and French.
