Shannon Barr

Shannon started at Front Desk at an exterior entrance hotel in 1997. She learned a lot through that job. She then moved into sales and became the DOS for the Embassy Suites in Jacksonville, FL. Her husband served in the Navy, so they moved almost every three years based on where he was stationed. She was the GM of the Hilton Garden Inn in Harrisburg, PA. The next move was to Oklahoma City, where she was the DOS for the Courtyard and Residence Inn in Downtown OKC, managed by John Q Hammons. After three years there, they moved back to Pennsylvania. John Q Hammons did not have any hotels located in that area so she transferred to Revenue Management so she could work remotely for them. Three years later, they were on the move again landing in Monroe, LA where her husband has retired. She joined InterMountain as the GM of TownePlace Suites Monroe in 2017. She realized her passion was in Revenue Management and pursued a position with InterMountain. Her favorite part of her job is that every day is different – never know wat is going to pop up! She loves working with her hotel teams. They are the fuel to the fire for her. Shannon is based in the Monroe, LA area.
