For the past three years, Herrmann served as the GM at the Santa Clara Marriott, where he and his team were recognized by Host Hotels as Hotel of the Year in 2013 and were again nominated in 2014 and 2015 as well as recognized for increasing the hotel’s revenue by 22 percent.
Prior to his success at Santa Clara, Herrmann served as GM of the Coronado Island Marriott Resort, where he also received numerous accolades including 2012 Western Region GM of the Year.
