Black-Owned Business Spotlight: The Westin BWI
By Nicole Donnelly
The BWI area is home to over 30 hotels. This February, in honor of Black History Month, we'd like to introduce you to the single black-owned hotel in the BWI area: The Westin BWI.
Evens Charles is the founder and managing principal of Frontier Development & Hospitality
Group LLC. Mr. Charles was inspired by his landlord and began investing in real estate, which lead him to start Frontier. At the age of 25, he executed his first small transaction that required an out-of-pocket investment of $1,000 resulting in a $25K profit six months later. This transaction was the catalyst that catapulted Mr. Charles into real estate investing. After a ten-year period of several successful luxury residential and multi-family acquisition and development projects, Mr. Charles, at the age of 36, had led Frontier to its first hotel investment. The firm has since grown to over a nine-figure portfolio of Hilton and Marriott Internationally branded hotel assets across six states.
