Alejandro Lugo

With over two decades of experience Alex has established a well-deserved reputation as one of the most respected management professionals in the hospitality industry, evidenced by an earlier designation in an issue of Hotel Magazine as “one of 37 GM’s to watch”.

Yet he also manages to combine his professional accomplishments with a varied and balanced schedule of personal pursuits.

The bilingual (English and Spanish) graduate of a Bachelor of Science in Hospitality Management from Miami’s Florida International University remains an ardent fan of that city’s sports team, the Dolphins, Hurricanes, Heat and Marlins. One of his favorite childhood memories remains going to his first ever Miami Hurricanes football game and watching them win the National Championship. And that interest extends to his family life where he enjoys playing baseball, soccer and basketball with his children and watching them play youth sports.

He also coaches some of those youth teams, and finds time for community work with Greenhouse 17, Habitat for Humanity and Lady Vet connect, along with volunteer professional involvement as a Board member on the Blue Grass Hospitality Association, the VisitLex CVB, and the Kentucky Hotel & Lodging Association.
