Leadership
Led by the people who built it.
Trust Hospitality is led by Richard Millard and Michael Register, two of its original founders — reunited to run the relaunch themselves.

Chairman & CEO
Six decades of hands-on hospitality — from night audit clerk at the Hilton Midtown to GM of the 1,400-room Hyatt Regency Dallas, to several hundred hotels managed across three continents.
Every position in a hotel, held personally — audit desk to general manager of one of the largest Hyatts in the country.
Over 150 distressed hotels stabilized for banks and federal agencies, including the FDIC — the origin of Trust's operating discipline.
As CEO of Trust, several hundred hotels managed across the United States, the Caribbean, and Latin America — including the number one Marriott Autograph operation worldwide.
After the Highgate transaction, a return with a rebuilt operating model — the conclusions of sixty years, applied at once.
Partner & Head of Development
Operator, dealmaker, and lawyer — the growth engine behind Trust's expansion to approximately 35 hotels before the Highgate transaction.
Executive Vice President and General Counsel, leading the team that opened new Nikki Beach locations around the world.
Joined Richard to grow the company to roughly 35 hotels, then served two years as Managing Director at Highgate.
Co-founded AAT, a software company acquired by a publicly traded Swiss firm; practiced international corporate law, including at Pinheiro Neto in São Paulo.
Focused entirely on growing Trust Hospitality — sourcing, structuring, and signing the next generation of the portfolio.
The ethos
Culture drives the work. It's why the same people keep coming back to build with us, and why the hotels we run feel like nowhere else.
