I’m excited to welcome Megan to the Campspot family, as well as congratulate Al on his many contributions and new adventure.”

Throughout the course of her career, Winfield has worked on and managed reservations systems, on-property management systems, websites, and mobile apps across a variety of travel companies including National Car Rental, Enterprise Car Rental, and most recently, Hilton Worldwide where she was Senior Director of Software Engineering.
