About Mike Hardtmeier

I have worked in the hospitality industry for 16 years in multiple sales positions within IHG, Visit Houston, Omni, and, most recently, with Pacific Hospitality Group. Shifting my focus to Education, I will specialize in growing partnerships and emerging markets in the ever-growing Texas Market for EF. Growing up in Brazil with a Swiss-German father and a Brazilian mother allowed me to travel the world and experience multiple cultures at an early age. This is a full circle moment for me as well, as I spent a month in Santa Barbara on an EF Tour in 1998 and later returned to the United States as an exchange student with EF for 2 years in Upstate New York. As an avid concertgoer and movie buff, I found a home in Austin in 2015 and never looked back. I firmly believe that any argument can be resolved over a cheese board.Schedule a meeting with me at https://tinyurl.com/5y8zj3kp, or, call me at 73••••••33I am looking forward to assisting you in creating lasting memories!
