About Rand Pratt

As the General Manager of The I’On Club, I lead the operations, finance, and member experience of one of the premier private clubs in the Southeast, offering exceptional tennis, aquatics, fitness, and social amenities to a vibrant community of members. With over 25 years of experience in hospitality, IT, and membership-driven organizations, I bring a unique blend of operational expertise, financial acumen, and guest-focused leadership that ensures long-term value for our members and stakeholders.My passion for hospitality and recreation is grounded in both tradition and innovation—whether by introducing new amenities, refining membership structures, or optimizing operations for efficiency and sustainability. I have also been involved in entrepreneurial ventures across the marine and hospitality industries, including a marine salvage company I successfully sold in 2017. Holding a U.S. Coast Guard Master Mariner credential since 1992, I bring a lifelong connection to the water and a deep appreciation for community-driven experiences.With a background in international business and psychology, I understand the diverse needs of high-expectation clientele and work to foster a culture of excellence, transparency, and continuous improvement. My goal at The I’On Club is to create a premier, memorable, and enjoyable experience for every member and guest—while building a strong, sustainable foundation for the future of the Club.
