Mara Cate Lorin

I am a hospitality marketer in cities around the world.

In our increasingly digitized society, I live/love to think about the experiences that ground and inspire us in the physical realm —particularly those at the intersection of travel, food & beverage, and design.

My work centers around the idea of using online + offline strategies to drive foot traffic toward meaningful (and delicious) in person experiences.

About Me

I grew up in a family where great food, warm hospitality, and adventurous travel were the way of life. Today, not much has changed.

That lifelong love for discovering special places and creating meaningful experiences has naturally led me to a career rooted in hospitality and storytelling.
