Last week, students from the had the wonderful opportunity of attending the National Society of Minorities in Hospitality () Conference in Reston, Virginia. This conference included exciting networking opportunities, and engaging panels/workshops highlighting the hospitality industry.

Izzy An (), who attended the Conference, shares her experience, “Attending the NSMH Conference was an incredible experience, filled with insightful panels, engaging workshops, and an exciting career fair that connected us with top hospitality organizations. A major highlight was meeting Mr. Evan Frazier (), one of the founding members of NSMH, and learning about the organization’s legacy firsthand.

We participated in discussions on sustainability, leadership, and career growth, gaining valuable perspectives on the evolving hospitality industry. The conference wasn’t just about learning–it was also about building meaningful connections. From connecting over shared dinners to meeting students from universities across the country, we were all united by our passion for hospitality.

A huge thank you to Professor Brian Barker for organizing this trip and exposing us to such an incredible opportunity. Grateful for this experience and looking forward to bringing these insights back to NYU!”
