MANILA, Philippines - In the commitment to uphold international standards of academic excellence, Enderun Colleges vigorously augments its multinational faculty with professionals and industry leaders who provide real-world context in their instruction and training. Recently, the College welcomed three top-ranked individuals as new members of the Food and Beverage faculty.

Leading the team is Alex Jureeratana, senior hospitality management faculty member, who besides teaching F&B classes, continuously improves the College’s hospitality and F&B course offerings, and advises hospitality-related student organizations. He is also executive director of food and beverage, responsible for staff training and the overall food and beverage operations management of 101 by ADF+Enderun, the College’s application restaurant. Since finishing his BA in Accounting/Finance from the University of North Texas, Jureeratana has only been associated with top-rated hotels. Prior to Enderun, he has held the F&B Director post at Hotel Bel-Air in Los Angeles and at The Resort at Pelican Hill in Newport Beach, California. He assumed the same position at MGM Grand/The Mansion Hotel in Las Vegas, where he worked with the renowned French chef Joel Robuchon to open L’Atelier de Joel Robuchon, a one-Michelin starred restaurant, and eponymous Joel Robuchon, which acquired a Mobil five-star, AAA five-diamond, and three-Michelin star all within the first year of operations.

Johanna Huang, who currently teaches Food & Beverage Service Procedures, is a repatriate with almost 20 years of professional experience from the United States. She completed her AA in Interior Design from the International Fine Arts College in Miami, Florida. She has served as assistant restaurant manager at Hyatt Newport Beach and Hyatt Regency Irvine in California. At St. Regis Monarch Beach Resort and Spa in Dana Point, California, she was a concierge where she was expected to ensure complete guest satisfaction; she was concurrently vice-president of the Orange County Concierge Association. A keen entrepreneur, Huang was president of her own Syrups USA, which manufactures flavors and syrups for beverages and supplies to country-wide cafés in the US.

The most recent addition to the F&B faculty is Miguel R. David, who currently teaches Beverage Management. He is a graduate of the prestigious Johnson & Wales University in Rhode Island, with a double degree in BS Hospitality Sales and Event Management, and BS Hotel and Restaurant Management, and an AS degree in Culinary Arts and Food Service Management from the same university. He was director of special events and retail food outlets at Aramark Corp. in Boston, Massachusetts, then became director of catering at Glen Cove Mansion in Glen Cove, New York.
