Allen E.'s Linkedin Analytics

With nearly 18 years in hospitality, I’ve honed my expertise in driving direct revenue and creating memorable guest experiences. My career has included working with some of the world’s largest brands and learning directly from innovative CEOs who have successfully built and exited companies. I hold a Master’s in Hospitality Management from Cornell and a Bachelor’s from UCF’s Rosen School of Hospitality Management. I’ve spent over a decade excelling in hospitality distribution and marketing and have consulted with numerous small businesses in the Orlando Winter Park area, providing strategic guidance and marketing insight. In 2013, I started Horseshoe Hospitality, helping independent hotels (10-300 rooms) optimize their revenue and guest experience. Working with entrepreneurs and hotel owners who may lack hotel-specific expertise but are eager to unlock their property’s full potential. Rooted in the belief that hospitality is about serving others, I approach every guest as family. Inspired by my father’s career in psychology and education, I bring a blend of compassion, strategy, and high emotional IQ to everything I do. Beyond work, I’m passionate about learning, psychology, volunteering, and music. I love spending time with my family, being a proud dog dad, and exploring theme parks.
