My Story
Hi, I’m Brian Proctor, your host for Tuesday’s Thanks. Born and raised in Montreal, Canada I was bit by the Hospitality bug at an early age. My career started at the Westin Hotel in Calgary, Alberta and spanned across both Canada and the United States with too many stops to count.
You either love working in the Hospitality Industry or it’s not for you. My career took me around the world with global brands like Starwood Hotels & Resorts and Bridgestreet Global Housing allowing me to meet a wide variety of amazing people. Now, I look forward to bringing these people to life and sharing their stories with you.
