More about Pam & my approach

In their words

What clients say.

Pam was the perfect General Manager for the job. She earned the trust and respect of both our ownership family and the entire hotel team while leading our Autograph Collection opening through the unprecedented challenges of the pandemic — and she didn't just help us open a hotel, she helped us build a thriving culture and a lasting legacy.
Bill GriffithPresident, Rivendell Land Co
Pam is one of the most resilient, innovative, and accomplished hospitality leaders I have had the pleasure of working with. She consistently delivers outstanding business results while building high-performing teams that genuinely respect and trust her. She is truly an A+ leader whose vision and passion for hospitality leave a lasting impact wherever she leads.
Bridget BilinskiArea Vice President, Marriott Hotels
Pam was instrumental in the design, pre-opening, and operations of our hotel as General Manager. Her leadership, initiative, and exceptional work ethic guided the project through a successful opening — and she consistently found ways to enhance profitability while elevating the guest experience.
