The 34th Annual Cornell Real Estate Conference is pleased to feature Rama Chanani as one of the panelists on the Shake it Up: Agents of Change in Commercial Real Estate Panel.
Rama Chanani has always had an innate interest in business, and began working at the hotel her parents owned at a young age as the “CEO of vending machines.” As her family’s portfolio grew, she stepped into the Co-President role, where she managed all day-to-day operations, including strategy, financing, marketing, acquisition and HR for 75+ employees. Through the 2008 financial crisis, she found ways to creatively build out her businesses, by helping found a tourism business improvement district with her local city and sitting on the franchisee advisory board of Wyndham Worldwide.
Chanani co-founded Stay Wanderful in 2015 to help hoteliers win back their customers and margin from third-party booking sites. Prior to founding Stay Wanderful, Chanani worked at Tishman Speyer and Greystar.
