About Kathleen Oconnell

Hospitality business manager and trainer with over 25 years experience with Fortune-500 hotels (Gaylord, Marriott, Hilton, The Cheesecake Factory), local restaurants, and private catering companies, handling VIP and high profile events. Kathleen O'Connell comes to us with more than 25 years of experience in Restaurants, Hotels and other Prestigious Venues. As a native Washingtonian, Ms. O'Connell has built and fostered relationships with VIP's, meeting planners, colleagues and clients from all over the world. Having worked most of her career in Sales and Operations, Ms. O'Connell can fully appreciate the planning AND execution of an event and the attention to every minor detail that goes into both large and small events. She has a unique talent for high-profile and high security events due to her proximity to Washington D.C. and the world we live in today. Additionally, she takes the time to train and mentor those she works with, by continually maintaining relevant licenses and training in her field. Not only does she have a passion and unique ability to form an instant bond with those she works with, but uses that same passion and ability to engage with others to volunteer locally.
