In its 30th year, #LodgingConference once again proved why it’s such a beloved industry event. Huge thanks to Harry Javer and Elizabeth Wolff for creating a conference that has connected us for three decades. I was honored to share an AHLA update and lead an Executive Briefing with Greg Juceam, Beth McMahon, Ayesha Molino, John Murray, and Leeny Oberg. I appreciated their perspectives on demand trends, growth and resiliency of the industry, and spilling the beans on their favorite hotel gems. Barry Bloom, a great friend of AHLA and the AHLA Foundation, joined me for an insightful discussion at our Owner Leader Council dinner on the importance of engaging in advocacy; and it was a true pleasure to connect with friends and colleagues at our joint AHLA/F reception. Already looking forward to next year!
