Consulting Experience

As a Senior Project Manager with HVS Portland, Breanna Smith draws on her hospitality sales experience to deliver authoritative, comprehensive, and thoroughly researched hotel appraisals, market studies, and feasibility studies. In addition to the Portland market, Breanna’s expertise extends to Idaho, particularly the greater Boise area. Her repertoire of appraisals and market studies features several unique projects, including a proposed luxury boutique hotel near Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. Breanna is a registered Oregon Appraisal Trainee and is expected to obtain her Certified Commercial Appraiser license by the end of 2018. She began her hospitality career in college, interning at the Elitch Gardens Theme & Water Park in Denver and The Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado, while earning a BSBA in Hospitality Management from the Daniels College of Business at the University of Denver. Breanna later rose to revenue- and sales-management positions at Marriott International. In these roles, she made corporate sales for full-service Marriott-branded hotels across Texas, conducted strategic analyses and daily management of hotel transient guest performance data, and created strategies to maximize hotel revenue.
