TAMPA, Fla., May 24, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Valet Living, the leading residential amenities provider to the multifamily housing industry, today announced Anthony Hylton as Senior Vice President of Operations. Hylton will lead Valet Living's Field Operations Team comprised of more than 8,000 associates, responsible for delivering the amenities and services that Valet Living offers.

A graduate of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, Hylton served for 6 years before entering the private sector, focusing on financial services, including roles as a Business Development Officer for NatWest Bank and Head of Global Operations for Corporate Cards at MasterCard International.
"I'm incredibly excited to join a thriving company known for its service culture mindset," said Hylton. "The structure change adds expertise to the team, while also increasing customer focus, both of which unlock additional opportunities to innovate on the client experience."
