Lindsie and Kaitlyn

The Scout Team

A collective 30 years in hospitality working for major hotel brands, we became industry scouts through sourcing, negotiation, and event execution.
We are a proud, women-owned small business.

Kaitlyn Cinquegrani - Co-Founder
Kaitlyn's hospitality path began while working for a local hotel during college. Graduating with a bachelor's degree from Roosevelt University, she knew this was her passion and quickly immersed herself in event sales with one of the largest hotel companies in the world. Experienced in contract negotiation, account management, and event planning, her 15 years of knowledge and experience are crucial in streamlining and elevating the event planning process.
While the hospitality industry has been one of the hardest hit by the COVID-19 pandemic, Kaitlyn decided that this was the time to push the boundaries of what's comfortable and co-found Scout Hospitality with Lindsie. Operating a company that will allow the team to own the entire event collaboration process, Scout Hospitality enjoys the challenge of creating renowned events for its clients.
