Hollander Hospitality Welcomes Liesl Schoenstein as HR & Payroll Assistant

Liesl brings a diverse background in human resources and communications. She began her journey as an intern at SurveyMonkey, where she gained hands-on experience across all areas of Human Resources over two summers. She later worked at the University of Oregon as a Front Desk Agent and Docent at the Museum of Culture and Natural History.

During the pandemic, she transferred to Western Washington University, where she became the Communications Coordinator for the Center for Canadian-American Studies.
