A passion for hospitality and service, combined with talent, drive, a few Hotelie virtues, and an education from the Cornell Peter and Stephanie Nolan School of Hotel Administration, can lead virtually anywhere. In every corner of the hospitality sector—from brands to ownership, real estate to restaurants, the experiential to the digital—a Hotelie is innovating, improving, and influencing the industry.
They continue our long tradition of being bold and transformative. They propel the school forward by giving back, contributing to the current student experience, providing industry connections and guidance, and finding opportunities for meaningful collaboration.
Here, six alumni, who have followed different paths and landed in various industry verticals, share how they are bringing their changemaker spirit and Hotelie ethos to the world of hospitality.
Our year-long 100th Anniversary Celebration of the Cornell Peter and Stephanie Nolan School of Hotel Administration, culminates in this 100th anniversary edition of Hotelie celebrating the past, present, and future of the #1 Hospitality School in the world.
