SANTA ANA, Calif., Feb. 14, 2017 — With the recent hiring of a new director of sales, Courtyard Santa Ana Orange County looks to explore new opportunities for the hotel in the Orange County area.
Under the management of Dimension Development, the hotel has appointed Jillian Clary to take over the important role.
"I am thrilled about the opportunity to join the Dimension Development team and am excited about the challenge of working for this amazing Orange County hotel," Clary said. "I started my hotel career working in the banquet department and then at the front desk at a full-service Marriott, so I have been eager to get back to the brand. The Marriott service standards are known throughout the industry, and I am proud to be part of a team that leads the way in the guest service culture."
Prior to accepting the position at the hotel near Irvine, Clary accumulated 16 years of hospitality experience across roles in quality assurance for fast-food restaurants as well as responsibilities in revenue management, brand quality, human resources management and sales management for other hotel chains. With a firm foundation for success, she graduated in 2003 from the Collins School of Hospitality Management at California State Polytechnic University-Pomona.
In her spare time, Clary enjoys the outdoors with her husband and young children. They frequent the beach, sneak in weekend getaways and always cheer for Los Angeles' professional baseball team.
