Aimbridge announced in April that Keryn McNamara was promoted to chief information officer, thanks in large part to her success over the last five years leading hotel technology and strategic technology partnerships, the company said in a LinkedIn post. As CIO, McNamara will lead the Aimbridge IT team, further enhance the hotel and corporate technology platforms, and identify breakthrough solutions that lead to improved owner, associate and guest experiences.

“[McNamara] is more than just a champion for innovation — she also personifies our culture, constantly striving to create a place of growth and belonging,” the post said. “As a founding member and the chair of the Aimbridge Women Excelling (AWE) resource group, she helps empower and mentor team members across the organization every day.”

McNamara is also an advisory board member of Women Leading Travel and Hospitality.
