Why fit in when you were born to stand out!!! From big to bigger!
We’re SO Proud of our President!
Suzanne Holbrook, after 4 years as Corporate Director of Spa Operations for Marriott International of the Americas, has been promoted to Senior Corporate Director. Marriott, who recently acquired the Starwood Brand, has promoted Suzanne to oversee Spa Operations for the Marriott family, which will include Starwood in her new Senior position. This well-deserved promotion comes with years of dedication and hard work as well as passion for the spa industry. Having started her profession working in the UK managing her own business in Salon & Spa, Suzanne decided, after 16 years, to join the seven seas and the Steiner Group to manage spas on Cruise ships. Suzanne quickly advanced her career over the course of another 16 years as Spa Director for the Ritz-Carlton in San Juan, PR, Reynolds Plantation and Orlando Grande Lakes, proving to be a top producer for her spas. In addition, as President of the Florida Spa Association, Suzanne has proven to be a leader of the highest capacity. We are honored to have the good fortune to have Suzanne guide the FSA team and very proud of her professional accomplishments.
And the Award goes to “Flies in My Coffee”
Maureen Vipperman is the author of the award-winning bestseller, Flies in My Coffee, the story of a journey through times of chaos and uncertainty, using fear of the unknown to propel her instead of trapping her. Growing up in a large blended family, you can easily get lost in the shuffle. A Military Veteran, she began an 18-year career in hospitality and found her voice. Discovering the love for people and the varying aspects of human nature, she still finds the balance between raising kids and a demanding career. Having traveled around the world and settling just outside of Tampa Bay, Maureen not only oversees the Operations Director for multiple properties for the largest privately held hotelier in North America Ocean Properties but has found the time to write a bestseller book.
