this particular generation creates new, unique, and innovative ways for
the hotel to engage with our youngest guests on a personal level.”

years as Talent Acquisition Manager at The St. Regis Mexico City. In her
new role of CMO, Ramirez will drive the hotel’s efforts in catering to
the millennial generation and identify various approaches and services

travelers. Ramirez will also be responsible in conducting monthly
meetings with the millennial workforce in an effort to identify any
generational challenges that may arise at work, and learn the best
practices to lead and collaborate with each employee, creating an
