Home Our Story Our Growth Our Team Our Portfolios Contact Us Kalyan Hospitality is proud to introduce our new Team Member Spotlight page! Our Team Member Spotlight page allows us to broadcast our amazing, hard working colleagues. The Spotlight is always changing, be sure to check back in for our newest featured employees! Lisa Wells Lisa joined our Team Kalyan back in 1999. Lisa first started working at one of our sister property’s, it wasn’t until Nick called her for an interview did she join Team Kalyan. She began her journey as a Front Desk Agent and is now our outstanding Director of Accounting. If Lisa could pick three words to describe Kalyan Hospitality she would say Growing, Dedication, and Family. If she could wish for one thing to happen in the company within the next 10 years, it would be for her to be the Senior Director of Accounting with her own core team in order to create an even stronger foundation. In her free time, Lisa enjoys visiting National Parks throughout the U.S. and singing! Her favorite song to sing is My Heart Will Go On by by Celine Dion. Lora Mowbray Say hey to Lora Mowbray!

She then became the acting Sales Manager for the Home2 Suites as well as our Hampton Inn, Lora’s favorite parts of working for Kalyan are the life lasting friendships she has made with coworkers and the guests, respect, support, friendship, and the family feeling relationship she has developed with Nick & Rita over the years and being a part of the opening team at the Home2 Suites!

The biggest pieces of advice she could give to new team members is to be dedicated and learn more.
