Shinn’s accomplishments throughout her 20-year career in the hospitality industry provide her with the necessary skills to manage the award-winning Amara resort. As Rooms Division Manager at The Peninsula Beverly Hills, Shinn facilitated and oversaw a $7 million Spa renovation. Her experiences at The Peninsula were put to use as she became involved with L’Auberge de Sedona. Her expertise in the areas of personalized service, seamless check-in of guests and eye for detail were evident to the owners and contributed to their decision to tap Shinn to manage their adjoining Amara property. Previously involved in the opening of the Ivy in San Diego, Shinn’s contributions to that successful boutique hotel helped gain the celebrity and hip audience for which it is known. These themes of personalized service, customization and creating top-notch service standards are all skills that Shinn has honed throughout her career and which she plans to use as general manager of Amara.
