Gregory Roberts' rise from student to respected and sought-out member of the hospitality
industry has been a remarkable journey.
In three short years since graduating from Johnson & Wales, Gregory now manages the largest corporate housing company in New York City, and presides over a growing enterprise handling vacation homes for executives. And it all began with a major event on the West Coast where he hosted a former president of the United States.
Following graduation from J&W, he packed his bags -- and his drive for success -- and joined the renowned St. Regis Hotel in New York, where his management skills as the assistant back-of-the-house manager proved invaluable, and led to numerous honors. In recognition of those skills, and his dedication to detail, Gregory was recruited to join the pre-opening team at the St. Regis Hotel in Los Angeles. He played a key role in the preparations for the 2000 Democratic National Convention and hosted President William J. Clinton.
