The first thing you prefer to discover is the event space, thinking "how big is the ballroom and how many people does it hold?" or "I wonder what the rooms are like and how many suites do they have?". And for giggles, you are tempted to ask the front desk for a sales contact so you can take a fam tour. Your career experience has been dynamic and is filled with numerous success stories of how you captured indecisive groups.

You are comfortable with casual sophistication and realize the concept of luxury has evolved to be approachable and not cookie-cutter.
