For the past twelve years, key principals of ResortCom International have helped grow Park City, Utah as an ideal place to getaway any time of the year. ResortCom currently manages several local properties, including The Park Plaza Resort, The Lodge at Stillwater and Shadow Ridge Resort Hotel & Conference Center, which have experienced a busy summer and an increase in rental activity.

To continue this momentum, ResortCom has recruited Kevin Ellis as the new regional sales manager for the Park City/Heber area. With over 22 years of experience in the sales and hospitality industry, Ellis will lead the sales team and encourage buyers and visitors to discover and become a part of the Park City community.

"Kevin Ellis will contribute greatly to the ongoing success of ResortCom's Park City resorts," said John Small, chairman of ResortCom. "I have watched this area grow tremendously since I first began working here 13 years ago. Utah is more than just a ski destination, and more people are realizing all that Park City has to offer."

Ellis is dedicated to the local community and is active in the Park City Chamber, Ski Utah, Park City Lodging Association, Salt Lake Convention & Visitors Bureau, Utah Travel Counsel and the National Tour Operators Association. Previously, he was the sales and marketing director for Park City Transportation and the president of Hospitality Sales and Marketing International. Ellis has also managed transportation for Olympic events with Lewis Brothers.

Ellis will be in charge of continuing ResortCom's efforts to drive revenue for clients by boosting resort sales and rentals. He will maintain relationships with key wholesalers and travel agents throughout the country, participate in travel-related trade shows and events, and maintain the resorts' strong relationships with Travelocity, Orbitz and Expedia.
