In this week’s Staff Spotlight, it’s our pleasure to introduce you to Ashok Kumar Sabal – Housekeeping Supervisor at Karma Golden Camp!
Ashok hails from a rural hamlet near Jaipur and joined us at Karma Golden Camp when we opened the resort in September 2021. Since then, Ashok has been an integral part of the team and is one of the most dedicated people we have on board.
Always smiling and with a positive attitude, there is no task too difficult and no request too complex for Ashok as he is known to constantly delight guests and even fellow team members with his work ethic.
So, let’s get to know him a little better…
