[lecturer by day; early-career researcher by …the other day]
Hello and welcome to my academic blog.
My name is Alexandra (Andra) Constantinescu and I work as a Lecturer in Hospitality and Tourism Management. I love teaching and I believe that knowledge and education are one’s most valuable assets. I also enjoy learning and researching. So much so that in February 2021 I have enrolled on a new and exciting journey as a doctoral researcher. I am studying the relationship between environmental sustainability and corporate reputation within the hospitality industry, with a view to develop a framework for Green Corporate Reputation.
To start with, this blog aims to document my research journey. For the future, I hope it will evolve into a more complex, academic website, where I aim to publish essays, editorials, reports and opinion pieces on all things hospitality. Until then, follow me on Twitter for updates on my PhD journey and random foodie tweets.
In my spare time, I explore different cuisines, challenge myself to cook elaborated dishes and experiment with sourdough baking. I also like to write about food and sometimes I get involved in projects related to recipe development, food styling and food photography. My foodie endeavours can be found on (my other blog): www.mintandrosemary.com or on Instagram @mintandrosemary.
