Fatima has been with the Ontario Restaurant Hotel & Motel Association since the merger in 1999.  In her capacity of developing marketing and benefit programs for its members, the priority will always remain the member and ensuring that we as Ontario's largest hospitality association provide value added programs and resources to our members across the province.  Resources of great interest include training and energy where Fatima will always hold the kilowatt and cubic metre in high regard as these areas affect our sectors 2 highest cost centres being utility costs and labour costs.  

Her extensive hospitality management background provided her with experience from Holiday Inns, Venture Inns, Travelodge & Quality Inn properties.  This experience led her to teach for a number of years at Humber College of Applied Arts & Technology.
