SPS has meant a great deal to my life both personally and professionally. Personally, some of my dearest friends and closest contacts have come by way of my SPS and my Tisch Center of Hospitality experience. Professionally, my connectivity through SPS and the Hotel program, the opportunities, internships, board positions, adjunct teaching, and clients and friends that I have been able to procure, have been second to none. I am extremely grateful and humbled to be a part of the inaugural Hall of Fame class at SPS, and hope to continue to contribute to a mutually beneficial relationship with the school, alumni, students, teachers, mentors, and administrators."
