This month, she stepped into a new role as the Hospitality and Sales Manager for The Marq Southlake! As such, Crystal is now in charge of managing the entire Legends Hall team to ensure The Marq Southlake remains the premier destination for life’s most memorable occasions. As a long-time member of Team Southlake, there’s no doubt that she will lead the team to new reach new heights!
