    Daniella Menachemson is a distinguished trailblazer in the hospitality industry, with an entrepreneurial spirit and an impeccable reputation for quality. With over 16 years of experience, she's helping to modernize the way hotels (in particular) are furnished with her exclusive line of luxury furniture. She is an expert in the environmental design and development of leisure and hospitality facilities with a particular emphasis on how furnishings complement the specific design and branding of spaces. She is an innovator and dissects the spaces to provide each customer with an individuality that complements their venue. This modus operandi is unique to her approach and has been the catalyst for the strong growth of her business. Unlike most of her competitors in this space, Daniella is positively against the approach where ‘one size fits all’ rather taking time to listen and understand the specific needs of each potential customer. She then sets about working within this framework by providing a modern, different and creative outcome that perfectly aligns with the brand values of each customer individually.  Engaging with Daniella one soon gains the impression of a young lady highly motivated by what she does (and believes in) which is the key enabler for the continuing growth of her business and influences others to achieve their dreams. Stylenations was recently featured in the respected magazine, D CEO magazine - a Dallas city magazine that identifies and interviews influential business leaders. She was recently featured and applauded for the growth of her business Stylenations during periods of great difficulty. Furthermore, her company Stylenations was also recognized for "Best in Show" at the annual Boutique Design New York competition. 

    Throughout the pandemic, Stylenations continued to focus their collective energies on sustainable designs and their expert team were able to create inspirational  presentations that ignite the senses and positioned the business to capitalize on the anticipated demand once Countries opened up after the pandemic shutdowns. During this period, Daniella developed a series of podcasts that connect with influencers in the hospitality industry called ‘Hospitality Nations.’ Her local regional and global influences are significant.

    Daniella is a wife, mother of three children and an entrepreneur with a strong belief in the development of female entrepreneurs which is one of her passions and in respect of which cause she volunteers her time. During the Global student entrepreneur awards in Dallas in 2021 Daniella was one of the judges on the panel for the final selection. She also serves as chair on the board at Entrepreneurs' Organization where she has been a board member for the past 2 years. She has had an international, national, and local impact on the hospitality industry because of her expertise, knowledge, and innovative thinking. She is passionate about hospitality and how web 3.0 can be the change for hospitality and design for the future.

    Seeing new ways to bring collaborators in the community together from all through the process the metaverse will break through barriers of entry making decision making an easier process. Her vision is to create a world where the global community can collaborate on designing and building the metaverse of hospitality, in a process that is easily accessible.
