CLAIRE OTGAAR | HOSPITALITY OS&E COORDINATOR
“To be truly visionary we have to root our imagination in our concrete reality while simultaneously imagining possibilities beyond that reality.”
As the Hospitality OS&E Coordinator at Fox Browne Creative, I work alongside a passionate team to help shape sustainable, considered guest experiences across Africa. My path into hospitality wasn’t linear. I began by managing my family’s farm — running crops, livestock, and everything in between. That hands-on work taught me resilience, resourcefulness, and a deep respect for detail — all of which still guide my approach today.
I spent years in equestrian management, where I learned patience, discipline, and the importance of human-animal connection. Later, I moved into luxury regenerative tourism, focusing on marketing, strategy, and guest experience. That chapter showed me how tourism, when done thoughtfully, can drive real impact — for people, places, and communities.
At Fox Browne Creative, I’m continually learning while contributing to projects that align with my values. I believe the small, often unseen decisions we make can shape the way people feel — and that considered details can create meaningful change.
