Lynn Easton
Lynn Easton provides strategic vision and a well-honed stylistic eye to all aspects of Easton Porter Group properties and operations. An international speaker and lifestyle-influencer, Lynn’s sophisticated design sensibilities set the tone for the EPG luxury brand, and her impeccable attention to layered detail is what keeps us reaching high standards of quality and drives our company’s growth, including earning accolades as a 2015/2016 Inc. 5000 fastest growing private company in America. A background as a producer for live television has served Lynn well in founding Easton Events, an internationally recognized top luxury event and destination wedding planning firm under the EPG umbrella, regularly included in “best of” lists published by Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar, among others. She is an inspired innovator and relentless pursuer of refinement, which is evident in the lush textures and patina of EPG’s celebrated boutique hotels, restaurants, wineries and event venues. Under her creative direction, each Easton Porter Group project, property or marquee occasion showcases an intuitive sense of stage setting and classic but fresh design.
Dean Porter Andrews
Dean Andrews’ bold vision and business acumen undergird all Easton Porter Group endeavors. He loves the hands-on aspects of developing hospitality enterprises, from finding exceptional properties to making guests feel welcome, to curating vintages for the wine lists, to fine-tuning occupancy projections and budgets. He’s honed expertise in every aspect of the industry through decades of international luxury hospitality management. Andrews co-founded EPG in 2012 after a distinguished run as President of the Americas and Senior Operating Officer at Orient Express Hotels. During his twelve-year tenure with Orient Express, he expanded the company’s portfolio from eleven properties to fifty, with total revenues of over $600 million, and was one of three directors charged by the board of Orient Express Hotels to collaborate with the investment community during the company’s successful IPO on the NY Stock Exchange in 2000. In addition to Orient Express, Andrews has held senior management positions with Omni Hotels, including serving as a general manager and Regional Vice President of Operations and as VP of Asset Management which entailed overseeing the company’s strategic growth plans with Hong Kong-based ownership, Wharf Holdings, and began his career with hotel management positions with London-based Lex Hotels. Andrews studied at the University of Colorado and Columbia, but is perhaps most proud of his honor doctorate from Johnson & Wales University, given in recognition of his contributions to developing their food and beverage apprenticeship programs.
