His first position was in food and beverage at The Ritz-Carlton Chicago, A Four Seasons Hotel. Cima’s passion for people and service has driven him to take numerous leadership roles at various properties throughout the world. His international experience ranging from city-centre hotels to remote resorts poised him for his current senior leadership role as one of only a handful of Regional Vice Presidents in the company.

An avid surfer and road cyclist, Cima will certainly take advantage of the nearby Malibu beaches, rolling hills, and the warm, sunny weather.
