A graduate of the International Institute of Tourism and Hotel Management in Austria, Sandy is a veteran Singaporean hotelier, who is effectively bi-lingual in English and Chinese.

InterContinental Khao Yai Resort takes historical inspiration from the area’s gateway from rail transportation to the northeast Thailand during the reign of King Rama V. Nestled on the lush tropical landscape of numerous lakes and abundant trees, the luxurious resort is designed by award-winning architect and interior designer Bill Bensley, offering 64 luxury rooms, suites and repurposed heritage railcar suites and villas, equipped with world-class facilities including five dining outlets, a cross-fit-inspired gym, outdoor swimming pool, wellness spa, kid’s club and outdoor lawn for catering service and events.
