  • Vice President

    Tom Whitney

    Tom Whitney is the Vice President for Pennbridge Lodging. Before joining the Pennbridge team, Tom amassed over thirteen wide-ranging years of Marriott experience with the industry leader. Tom worked in a variety of Marriott Corporate roles throughout his hospitality career that helped form Tom’s love of hotels. Most of his time at Marriott was focused within the Global Design discipline but also included positions in Feasibility & Asset Management and his last position with Marriott Bonvoy. When he started at Marriott, Tom was influential in the prototype design of many initiatives and brand refreshes. He later oversaw the design development of over 1,500 Marriott Select Branded hotels while working closely with Marriott’s Development team. After his time within Global Design, he moved to Feasibility & Asset Management where Tom helped support Marriott’s aggressive growth strategies by underwriting over 400 Marriott-branded hotels throughout the US and Canada for all 30 Marriott brands. His last position at Marriott was working on the expansion and integration of Marriott Bonvoy throughout the entire Marriott ecosystem.

    Tom studied Architecture at the University of Utah. While working for Marriott, his passion for hotels blossomed into much more. That affinity for the hospitality industry pushed him recently to complete a Master’s Degree in Hotel Management from Georgetown University while employed by Marriott. This educational pursuit coupled with his tenure at Marriott helped further Tom’s love for hotels. When not working on hotels, Tom enjoys spending time with his wife and three young daughters doing various activities and adventures. These include traveling near and far, playing tennis and coaching his daughter’s soccer team. When not thinking about hotels, he particularly enjoys hiking, biking, camping and looking for grizzly bears when spending time out in the Yellowstone region.
