“As our portfolio expands, we are able to add more than 150 associates to the LBA family and expand the LBA culture of community and service to these four markets, said LBA President Beau Benton.”
Overseeing the hospitality division for LBA, COO Farrah Adams adds, “Geographically, these properties are a perfect complement to our portfolio.

Adding three Marriotts, another Hilton and expanding our brand footprint with the Hyatt Place demonstrates the growth of the company and provides a wonderful opportunity of development for our associates.”
