Stuart Newmark, ’08 | Executive Vice President/COO, Yedla Management Company

Professional Achievement Award 2014

Following in his father’s footsteps, Stuart Newmark first began his career in hospitality by working in his dad’s hotels. With this experience, he built a successful career by serving a variety of high-level management and executive roles, but, despite doing so, his desire to go back to school overpowered him. In 2008, he earned his four-year degree and left UCF with the satisfaction of not only furthering his career, but also fulfilling a lifelong goal.
