Over 40-years later, Sal is a safety and security solutions expert to the hospitality industry. A knowledgeable and skilled individual that has witnessed industry changing issues, and is one of a small group of hospitality security practitioners that contributed to the modifications during the evolution of this spectacular industry; from the fallout of the Concetta Rosa Maria Franconero (stage name ~ Connie Francis) case from the evolution of hard-keys to digital key, from fire life safety installations resulting from deadly fires to carbon monoxide deaths to mass killings and personal panic devices for housekeepers. He was the front line, the changing force in what the hospitality industry now recognizes as day-to-day security operations.
