AIHM’s Meet the Instructor series lets you get to know the hardworking, inspirational individuals who guide our students on their AIHM journeys.

AIHM’s hospitality management curriculum takes students on an exhilarating journey. One of its highlights: the Practical Arts semester. A hands-on exploration of hotel operations, the Practical Arts course invites students to experience a variety of hotel areas from the work of the baristas to housekeeping to events management studies.

Some people you meet radiate energy and inspiration. They have a smile that’s contagious. They walk in a room, and it instantly brightens. Samantha Lauver-Marion, AIHM’s Head of Student Engagement, is a shining example!

A career in hospitality can take you around the world. Just ask Tip Tirakanirunkul, AIHM instructor in the Practical Arts. Originally from Thailand, she began her higher education locally before pursuing culinary training and a successful pastry career in Europe. Journeying full circle, she returned to her home country several years ago to share her hospitality expertise at universities in Thailand.
