Where did your Ruby story start?
I joined in 2015 as a working student, when there was only one hotel – Ruby Sofie. I was studying interior design and had trained as a carpenter, so I immediately got involved in creating Ruby Marie.
What does a typical day look like?
I usually have meetings with planners and architects on the projects I’m overseeing. I really like coordinating the creative process, but there’s plenty of time for design, too. Having that balance is great. At Ruby, you’re trusted to make your own schedule, which makes it much easier to manage work and family life.
What’s the best thing about working at Ruby?
My workmates and boss are so supportive. They don’t just think of me as a colleague, they take an interest in my life outside of work too. When I found out I was pregnant, I was a bit worried about telling them, but they were so kind. As well as sending gifts when my son was born, they remembered his first birthday, which meant a lot.
