I have had the pleasure of working with Tara
Matheny on a number of occasions and while she has been a tough negotiator, she
has always been fair and professional. One of the things I most admire was
always her transparency and being able to verbalize her concept and vision in
what she wanted. She is an outside-the-box thinker and actually provided me
valuable perspective as she looked at the negotiations from both sides."

is one of the rare individuals I have met in the Hospitality Business that is an
incredibly SMART business mind, yet CREATIVE with the processes
and environments that allow guest centric experiences to succeed. I have engaged with hundreds of clients and
consultants over the years that have one of those strengths, but not both."
