Ashok Patel

Hospitality has been a part of his life for as long as he can remember, it’s practically in his DNA! A true people person, he enjoys connecting with others and takes pride in carrying on a tradition of genuine hospitality. When he’s not talking hotels or striking up a conversation, you’ll most likely find him spending time with family, socializing with friends, or out on the golf course working on his swing.

Hector Lara

He got an early start in hospitality, working graveyard shifts while still in high school. Somewhere between the late nights and balancing numbers, he discovered his true passion, accounting! When he’s not crunching numbers, you’ll find him enjoying the outdoors, whether he’s camping, hitting the slopes on his snowboard, or riding motocross.
