The Team
On a mission to bring you the most fun and relevant international hospitality content these people never sleep and regularly get overhyped on coffee! While only one of these two statements is true, their motivation for SMACK is unparalleled and they will always be contactable and stalkable for you!
Meet Philip, GM of The Student Hotel Berlin. Whilst Philip is mainly in charge of the swag on the team, he completes the team of hosts perfectly with his wisdom and whit since season 2. With years of experience in hotels in all roles up to and including GM, his experience and knowledge of hospitality contributes vitally to Smack.
Meet Patrizia, recent graduate of the Ecole hôtelière de Lausanne and full time Swiss energy bundle.
With a family background in hotels and hospitality, she was the perfect addition to Smack’s team of hosts as of season 2. She currently works for the Zoku hotel in Vienna as their (pre-opening) Sales Manager and is looking to entertain you!
Meet Fritz, MD of L.I.K.E. Hospitality Consulting and Founder of hotelwebbee.
Quick with the words and never shy of a joke, Fritz has extensive experience with public speaking at various national & international hospitality events and as a guest-lecturer at various hospitality universities.
Believe us when we say, there is never a dull moment when Fritz is around!
Meet Flo, co-founder of Hotelhero. Flo’s background is in hotel management as he worked for both independent hotels and international chains. Today he supports hotels in their digital transformation, helps them find their way through the technology jungle and possesses the rare gift of being able to naturally entertain people with his presence and charisma. See & hear for yourself!
Meet Arne, the guy who makes sure that everything technical on the podcast runs the way it should. In charge of the sound and the production of the podcast episodes and essential idea-giver for Smack’s podcast, it’s very difficult to imagine Smack without him.
Meet Carolin, the girl who is always seeking out new opportunities for our community growth and who runs the administration behind the podcast. You can talk to her about interviews, cooperation, partnership and sponsoring as well as everything event related.
Partners & Friends!
