"A huge plus is the respect she's earned from executives around the world, and she'll be a tremendous asset as we continue to grow our global position." Kyricos added: “Nothing means more to me than helping people live well and feel their best. Spafinder Wellness is where I can fulfil this passion.”
With over 20 years' experience in the hospitality industry, Kyricos has served as director of global spa brands and programming at Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, where she led spa development, operations and marketing for seven years and spearheaded the creation of six international spa brands.
She holds a masters in hospitality administration from Cornell University and a bachelor’s degree in international relations from Wheaton College in Norton, Massachusetts.
