She will also work closely with Marketing and Operations to ensure that all visual, experiential, and storytelling elements strengthen Omni’s market position and deliver experiences reflecting the brand’s signature design.
Laura Trussell McKoy joined Omni in February 2007 as Director of Interior Design and quickly became a driving force behind the brand’s aesthetic evolution. She later advanced to Creative Director and Vice President of Interior Design, during which she founded the Omni Hotels & Resorts Design Studio. Under her leadership, the studio has executed distinctive, innovative, and guest-focused design projects across Omni’s portfolio, establishing a recognized benchmark in the hospitality industry.
“Laura has been instrumental in shaping Omni’s design identity and in bringing our brand to life at each hotel for nearly 20 years,” “She has helped pioneer Omni’s destination-driven storytelling, while also elevating the Omni brand at every turn. Her appointment to Chief Creative Officer recognizes her continued impact in shaping the future of Omni’s creative vision and brand position.”– Kurt Alexander, President of Omni Hotels & Resorts.
Before joining Omni, McKoy held leadership design roles with CNL Hotels and Resorts in Orlando and BBGM Architects and Interiors in Washington, D.C. A native of Paducah, Kentucky, she earned a Bachelor of Science in interior design from The University of Alabama, where she remains active on the Leadership Board for the College of Human Environmental Sciences.
But apart from this appointment, Omni Hotels & Resorts continues to reinforce its leadership team with strategic appointments that signal a strong focus on both creative and commercial excellence. More specifically, the recent naming of Adam Hayashi as Chief Revenue Officer demonstrates the brand’s commitment to driving innovation in design while optimizing revenue performance.
