Career
David Lorenzo started his career in 1989, at age 18, as a bellman at Marriott International. He was promoted quickly within the firm, after succeeding in improving the profit of various businesses. As an internal consultant, he was appointed to various special project teams for pre-opening hotels and sales, marketing, and business development initiatives. As a senior leader of Marriott, he managed several hotels and directed recruiting, training, and on-boarding for new general managers.
In 1999, Lorenzo became the vice-president (later general manager) of the newly purchased ExecuStay, a provider of temporary (30 days or longer) corporate relocation. Under his direction, the annual revenue of ExecuStay New York grew from $1 million to more than $50 million in less than 3 years. These results earned him various awards, including a nomination for the J.W. Marriott Award of Excellence. In September 2001, David Lorenzo was named as one of the "40 under 40" Crain’s New York Rising Stars.
Despite the context of a tight housing market, in less than two years, Lorenzo managed to increase the division’s available apartments from 180 to 800 units. He also expanded the geographic coverage of ExecuStay into nearby Connecticut, New Jersey, Westchester, and Long Island, during a time when the concept of corporate housing was considered a feature of Manhattan's real estate market.
In April 2002, he resigned from his position with Marriott, becoming, in May 2002, a partner of The Gallup Organization and leading the start-up of its Manhattan division.
