Background
- with over two decades of hospitality leadership, Seth co-founded Barrel Aged Management in the aftermath of the 2009 real estate crisis. Since then, the firm has quietly grown through word0of0mouth and referrals, trusted by some of the most notable names in hospitality and real estate. The firm's work spans top-tier hotels, private member clubs, high-profile restaurants, and branded residences. They have collaborated with developers like Tishman Speyer, Related, and Bedrock, and supported openings and repositionings for iconic properties including the Fifth Avenue Hotel, Hotel Fouquet's, Virgin Hotels, and more. Our network includes senior operators, Michelin-level chefs, and concept creators who understand both the creative and operational demands of world-class hospitality.
