Arlo Hotels, today announced Kierra Moore’s promotion from director of operations to hotel manager at Arlo Chicago. Moore will continue to oversee the operational duties and departments and help further grow the brand through the Chicago property, which opened in April 2023.
Kierra, a Chicago native, holds more than 10 years of experience in the hospitality industry, working in various leadership, operational, director and audit roles for prestigious hotel brands such as The Public Chicago, Hiltons at McCormick Place, Highgate, and DoubleTree by Hilton Chicago Magnificent Mile. Prior to that, Kierra joined the US Marine corps focusing on aviation mechanics in Miramar. After eight years of serving her country, Kierra felt the desire to explore other passions. She was a natural fit for the hospitality industry thanks to her core values of integrity, ownership, leadership, and teamwork.
“In just a short amount of time, Kierra has continuously demonstrated her strengths and experience are compatible with the hospitality industry and the Arlo brand,” said Anoop Rustgi, managing director of asset management at Quadrum Global. “Her contributions have been invaluable to the Chicago property and community. We are looking forward to continuing working together to achieve our goals and success.”
Her first job out of the marines brought her in the food & beverage industry before transitioning into the night audit role and eventually into operational roles before joining Arlo Chicago in August 2023 as director of operations. In less than a year, the inspired veteran and mother of four continued to impress Arlo’s principals leading her into a hotel manager role as of recently.
“Working for Arlo Hotels is a game-changer for me,” explained Moore. “I admire that there’s this close rapport with the staff and superiors at Arlo. Their team is empowering, creative and most importantly, they make me feel at home.”
In her new role, Kierra will strategically lead Arlo Chicago’s day to day operations and its team members amongst other responsibilities, while also creating an authentic Arlo Hotels ethos in Chicago.
Arlo Hotels’ latest announcement of new appointments and promotions comes at an opportune time when the brand is accelerating growth.
