Meet the Founder

Erika Leiter

A close partner for growing businesses.

A passion for people. A foundation in business. A vision for growth.

For many years, I found myself drawn to two professional passions: education and the hospitality industry. I have always valued the opportunity to help people learn, develop their abilities, and grow. At the same time, my experience in restaurant operations and entrepreneurship allowed me to understand the challenges of running a business from the inside.

My professional background brings together business management, entrepreneurship, hospitality, and hands-on operational experience. This combination has shaped my perspective on business performance, customer experience, operational consistency, and the importance of turning ideas into effective action.

I hold an Associate Degree in Applied Business, with a focus on Management and Entrepreneurship, from Hocking College. I also completed studies in Hotel, Business & Restaurant Management at the Hotel School of Venezuela through a program associated with the Hotel School The Hague in the Netherlands and Valet International Business School for Hotel & Tourism Management.

My professional experience includes approximately 20 years across hospitality-related businesses, with exposure to restaurant operations, quality control, service standards, and entrepreneurial initiatives. These experiences strengthened my understanding of process organization, resource management, operational challenges, and the relationship between service quality and customer loyalty.

As the founder of Monarca Solutions, I am building on this experience to bring together creative services, business support, and hospitality consulting. My goal is to help businesses identify their needs, evaluate their processes, recognize opportunities for improvement, and develop practical solutions aligned with their objectives.

Erika Leiter, Founder of Monarca Solutions
My commitment

My ambition is to build Monarca Solutions into a trusted and respected partner for businesses seeking thoughtful guidance, creative solutions, and meaningful improvement.

I believe successful business development begins with listening, understanding the challenges behind the numbers, and identifying opportunities that create lasting value.

Every project is an opportunity to learn, collaborate, and contribute with integrity, accountability, and a genuine commitment to our clients' goals.
