Director of Sales
Marie Altizer
Here’s my "story"; I left a 20 year career in hotel sales to take care of my family. I missed hospitality more than I ever thought I would. Thankfully, I found my dream job with an old hotel friend that started his dream company. I was able to restart my story using all that I have learned from hotels, event planning, contracting and sourcing.
