SERAH MORRISSEY'S BIO:
After being born and raised in South Dakota, Serah attended the University of Minnesota and graduated with honors from the school of Psychology (with no help from her Vocal Performance scholarship). Her hospitality career began in 2000 at The Saint Paul Hotel, a historic luxury full-service property in downtown St. Paul, MN, where she spent 10 years in HR, ultimately taking on the additional role of Corporate Director of Talent for 2000 hotel and restaurant employees. After serving in various hospitality HR and Training executive roles, she is now the Senior Director of Human Resources for the Intercontinental Hotel – Minneapolis St. Paul Airport.
Serah is the current President of CHART: A Hospitality Training Association. She is passionate about people development and enjoys writing training columns for Hotel Management Magazine, an opportunity she was given through involvement in CHART. Serah is a curriculum consultant for the hospitality programs at two local colleges and on the employer advisory board for several employment agencies in the Twin Cities.
Outside of hospitality training, Serah is most passionate about being a mom, exploring the world with her son and working to help the disadvantaged through volunteerism and advocacy. Serah has served on the board for YouthLink in Minneapolis and continues to be an advocate for homeless youth and mental health awareness. In 2015, she co-founded Green Ray Entertainment, a movie production company focusing on documentaries and family films. An adventurous spirit, Serah can sometimes be found jumping out of airplanes, walking on fire or horseback riding in Iceland.
As an assault victim herself, Serah took solace in connecting with the awesome folks at RAINN - the nation's largest anti-sexual violence organization. Whether you're looking for support, information, advice, or a referral, their trained support specialists are ready to help. Go to www.RAINN.org or call 1-800-656-HOPE.
