Alana O'Hare, the former ABC6 reporter and press secretary to Governor Dan McKee, is joining the Providence Warwick Convention & Visitor's Bureau as Senior Director of the Tourism Improvement District.
“Alana’s energy, experience, and love of her home state make her a perfect choice for our organization,” said PWCVB President and CEO Kristen Adamo. “We’ve put the pandemic behind us and have begun to develop innovative initiatives that fit the new paradigm. Alana will be a big part of the evolution of the PWCVB.”
O’Hare will lead the organization’s communications efforts and oversee the day-to-day operations of the newly-formed Providence Tourism Improvement District, which is funded by a two percent assessment on hotel stays in the city. Efforts to form a similar district are being undertaken in Warwick.
