Bio
Alex Hoff
Dr. Smith's passion for hospitality and tourism was palpable while a student of his, and his personal experience as an event planner and in the hotel industry inspired countless lectures filled with relevant (and humorous) anecdotes. He not only taught students valuable lessons in the field of hospitality but also how to think on a deeper level and give professional business presentations. Looking back, Dr. Smith was one of the most memorable professors of my undergraduate experience and I can confidently say that he inspired me to pursue a career in the hotel industry.
