Fisher’s primary responsibilities will be in leading the sales and marketing activities for each property and to develop relationships with primary demand generators in each market.

We’re very enthusiastic to have Richard on board and look forward to a long, successful and rewarding relationship,” remarked Ken Stone, VP of Sales and Marketing at Hospitality Management Corporation.
