The company’s new hires include Bee Dahl, who has been tapped as Director of Sales, and Amy Devlaliwalla, who has been appointed as Director of Business Development.

She continued her studies in Project Management at University of California Los Angeles, and completed Marketing SCPS program at New York University. She also earned a Hospitality Marketing & Media Strategies certificate from Cornell University in 2013.

Amy Devlaliwalla brings a 15-year management career to her new position as The Guestbook’s Director of Business Development.
