Boar's Head Resort welcomes two new members of the leadership team with the promotion of Executive Chef Paul D'Amelio and the new hiring of Director of Sales Mark White. Executive Chef D'Amelio was promoted from Chef de Cuisine of The Mill Room while White joins the team from another resort.

D'Amelio joined the culinary team at Boar's Head in August 2018 and was promoted to Executed Chef in December 2019. In his new role, he will manage all operations related to the culinary department, including menu development and staff and manager training.

First introduced to cooking by his mother, D'Amelio was immediately hooked as early as age four. As a teen, he worked at his family's restaurant in Spring Hill, Florida, which led him to pursue the hospitality program at Johnson and Wales in Miami. Prior to joining Boar's Head Resort, D'Amelio was the Sous Chef at Glenmore Country Club. D'Amelio currently resides in Charlottesville.

New Director of Sales Mark White will look to make an impact immediately. Throughout his 26-year career in leadership, marketing and major sales roles, White has a proven record of achievement. Prior to joining the team, White served for 10 years as the Director of Group Sales and Marketing at Wintergreen Resort and was responsible for direct management of the resort sales team, in addition to upholding relationships for the resort's largest clients. In his new role, White will be responsible for developing and executing strategic sales and marketing plans to generate and optimize overall revenues throughout the resort. White graduated from the University of Rhode Island and lives in Charlottesville with his 16-year-old daughter and two dogs. He is an avid golfer and enjoys cycling and hiking in the Blue Ridge foothills.

"With our multi-million dollar renovation project completed last year and being on the cusp of the golf course's opening in July, we're excited and prepared for a groundbreaking 2020 and feel confident with Chef D'Amelio and Mark as part of the team that will help get us there," said General Manager, Russ Cronberg. "Both bring big, creative ideas, great energy and a passion for hospitality and we're looking forward to continued success into the new year."
