The Founding Team
Stathis Papachristofilou is a professional trainer with more than a decade long experience in the field of luxury training and consulting.
His professional journey started as a lawyer in the legal field, where he served successfully for 20 years in the field of real estate and property management. However, his passion for hospitality and luxury was always there.
Working with VIPs during his legal duties with LAVRIS Production, a pioneer art production company, he had the chance to work with stars like Lady Gaga, Jeremy Irons, and many other international superstars. That allowed him to follow his desire to enter the world of hospitality and service.
After graduating from The British Butler Institute, he started his new journey as the Head Butler of the Former Royal Family of Greece.
His high performance and the appraisal from His Majesty King Constantine II of Greece and Her Majesty Queen Anne-Marie of Greece, gave him the motive to explore his destiny as a Lead Butler & Hospitality Trainer.
Until today, he works with an international clientele and elite profiles, as a trainer in private residences, mega yachts, private jets, world-wide 5* hotels and multinational companies as the principal trainer of The British Butler Institute.
Mr. Papachristofilou bases all his trainings on the following moto: Educating the mind without educating the heart, is no education at all.
Hospitality has always been a part of her life as she has been “exposed” to the high expectations of the field from a young age. Having the chance to work with leading companies and adapt in multiple international environments, gave her the opportunity to become an essential member of Epitome LTC.
She has worked at the Residence and the yacht of the Former Royal Family of Greece creating a trusting relationship with the family and the management.
She has also been successfully creating training agendas and schedules for Epitome’s trainings. Four Seasons, PrivatSea, InterContinental, Dior and Mercedes Benz are brands that she has collaborated with in the past, with great success as a representative of Epitope LTC.
