Our Leadership

Jamie Sutton
Co-Founder
Jamie started his career at the young age of 20, starting and running a tourism magazine in Southern California covering things to do for vacationers such as theme parks, museums, restaurants, and more. Over a ten year period, that grew into nine magazine titles, an in-room guest TV show, and an online ticketing system. This is where Jamie’s love for hospitality began, but he also had a passion for advertising.
Marketing and Advertising is where he has spent the last 15 years, building tech platforms and high-level advertising campaigns for many Fortune 500 businesses. Now he brings these two passions and experiences together as he embarks on the journey into Boutique Hotels.
