Eric Marichal
TREASURER
Eric has built a career centered around hospitality, operations, and strategic growth, always seeking ways to improve guest experiences and business performance. His entrepreneurial spirit led him through ventures in tax preparation, brewing, and hospitality, including owning and operating a historic inn with his wife, Stephanie.
After starting a family, Eric returned to his home state of Maine and became General Manager of the Bar Harbor Grand Hotel, where he refined his expertise in revenue management, business strategy, and team leadership. He continued to grow within the industry, taking on leadership roles as Portfolio Revenue & Project Manager, Director of Business Development, and now Director of Strategic Operations for a Maine-based hotel group.
Beyond work, Eric is always looking for his next adventure. He loves spending time with his wife and two daughters, cooking up new recipes, hiking scenic trails, paddling on Maine’s lakes and rivers, and exploring everything the state has to offer. He also enjoys learning new skills and finding creative ways to solve challenges—whether in business or everyday life.
He holds a BS in Accounting and an MBA in Business Analytics, was awarded the iDeaS Cornell Revenue Management Scholarship, and earned a Cornell Hotel Revenue Management Certificate. In addition to his leadership role, he also provides consulting services, helping businesses optimize operations, revenue strategy, and overall performance.
