About George

George was born in Syracuse, New York, grew up in Orlando, Florida and obtained his degree in Hospitality Management in 2014 from the University of Central Florida’s Rosen College. George began his career with Invited spending 4 years at the Citrus Club in Orlando in various Food and Beverage roles before serving as Service Director at City Club Birmingham for 6 months. He then left Invited to serve as Clubhouse Manager with Troon at NorthRiver Yacht Club in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, for 15 months. The opportunity to work at a Stadium Club as prestigious and successful as The University of Texas Club brought George back to where his career began with ClubCorp as the Director of Operations. After 3 football seasons in Austin, George was named General Manager of Centre Club Tampa and is thrilled to return home to Florida and continue the upward trajectory of the Club. George is a huge sports fan and die-hard Syracuse University, Philadelphia Eagles, New York Yankees and Orlando Magic fan, as well as a huge supporter of United States National Team Soccer (he almost cried when we missed the World Cup in 2018). He relocated to Tampa for his current role with his wife, Parker, and their English Bulldog, Tilly. When George is not at the Club, you can find him watching a random sporting event, on the golf course or out somewhere with their pup!
