Attending NYU SPS Hospitality School has been an invaluable experience for me to kickstart my career in hotel investments. Located in the heart of New York City, studying at NYU provided an unparalleled experience of both attaining the highest quality education and having the ability to take advantage of the prime location and gain access to the best and the brightest. I met all of the most important people in my life at NYU including my wife, my business partner, and closest friends—and for that, I am forever grateful."
