Episode Description
How did the Ritz-Carlton employee who was bad-mouthed for leaving early every weekend end up winning the company car?
What's the biggest moneymaker for the hospitality industry, why does that make them wary of kosher events, and how do you find the common ground for a win-win?
How did you end up in seminary in Israel because of your boyfriend, lose him, and end up marrying him?
Utilizing her worldwide network of hotels and “Service with a Smile” attitude–Suzanne and her company Meeting Matchmakers arrange stress-free, mutually agreeable contracts between their
clients and the businesses that serve them.
Her 25+ years of experience in the hospitality industry began in 1998 with Marriott International. Equipped with a degree in Finance from Penn State University and a love of travel from her time at Tel
Aviv University–Suzanne quickly rose to the role of Senior Group Sales Manager, earning the Chairman’s Circle Award for exceptional performance. In 2005, she was acquired by The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company where she led in sales for the entire organization,
an achievement for which she won the prestigious Keys to Success Award.
In 2010, Suzanne founded Meeting Matchmakers, LLC. Built on industry expertise and strong relationships, Meeting Matchmakers is a certified travel intermediary specializing in matching
groups with the right hospitality partners worldwide – and
