GAITHERSBURG, MD, August 28, 2020 /24-7PressRelease/ -- James Heineman has been included in Marquis Who's Who. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.
Mr. Heineman is the current vice president of hotel operations for Meisel Holdings, bringing to the role more than 25 years of proven success in high-end hospitality management. His introduction to the industry came in high school, when he began washing dishes at a local diner. Unenthused by dishes, but fascinated by cooking, Mr. Heineman began to finish his work early so that he could help on the line. His understanding of the demands of large-scale events and cooking blossomed, and he enrolled in Cornell University's world-class hotel administration program following his high school graduation. Mr. Heineman graduated from Cornell University in 1982 with a Bachelor of Science in hotel administration, accounting, property and asset management.
In 1985, Mr. Heineman began his management career with Interstate Hotels & Resorts, where he was named general manager of the iconic Roosevelt Hotel, an accomplishment he considers a career highlight. He remained general manager at the Roosevelt Hotel until 1999, in addition to managing other Interstate Hotels & Resorts properties, including the Philadelphia Marriott West and the Parsippany Hilton throughout the 1990s. He departed the Roosevelt Hotel in 1999 to become vice president of asset management for FFC Hospitality, where he served for three years before accepting a general manager position at another iconic New York property, the Algonquin Hotel.
Mr. Heineman transitioned back to corporate leadership in 2004 as the senior vice president of property management for the Ironstate Development Company. Over the next several years, he excelled in large-scale property management roles with Morgan Properties and Meridia-Capodagli Property Company, where he rose from vice president of property management to regional property manager before accepting his current position with Meisel Holdings in 2015.
Mr. Heineman has been named General Manager of the Year several times throughout his career, and attributes his success to his people skills and his willingness to be involved at all levels of operation. Within five years, Mr. Heineman hopes to remain with Meisel Holdings, exploring opportunities for internal growth with an eye on an eventual development manager role.
