AUSTIN, NV, December 09, 2025 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Laurian Arbo has been selected for inclusion in Marquis Who's Who. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.
Ms. Arbo has distinguished herself as the chief executive officer and owner of Magnolia Gallery & Inn, a business she established in 2017 in Austin, Nevada. Over the past eight years, she has been deeply involved in every aspect of the inn's operations. Her responsibilities include greeting guests personally, sharing the building's history with those interested, checking in visitors, learning about their journeys, and fostering meaningful connections. She also manages room preparation and cleaning to ensure each guest's experience is exceptional. Ms. Arbo considers the founding of Magnolia Gallery & Inn her most significant professional achievement, as it has given her greater freedom to travel and interact with a diverse array of travelers, enabling guests to come to her rather than seeking them out elsewhere.
Before launching her own business, Ms. Arbo built a robust career in hospitality and related industries. From 2001 to 2004, she served as assistant general manager and human resources representative at North Star Club, an ownership club, overseeing daily operations and managing personnel matters. This role allowed her to develop her leadership skills further and deepen her understanding of hospitality management.
Her tenure at Northstar-at-Tahoe, now part of Vail Resorts Management Company, spanned from 1990 to 2001. Initially hired as a switchboard operator, Ms. Arbo quickly expanded her expertise by taking on additional responsibilities in reservations, front desk operations, executive assistance and housekeeping. The comprehensive training she received during this period proved invaluable, equipping her with customer service and hospitality skills that have informed every subsequent role.
Before entering the hospitality sector, Ms. Arbo worked as a bookkeeper for 20 years. This experience provided her with a strong foundation in financial management and organizational skills that would later benefit her entrepreneurial endeavors.
Following her time at North Star Club, Ms. Arbo contributed her expertise to a janitorial supply company serving resorts throughout the Tahoe region. She then accepted a position as revenue auditor at The Hotel Nevada in Ely, where she was responsible for ensuring accurate financial reporting and compliance within the hotel's operations.
Ms. Arbo's educational background includes coursework at Sierra College in Rocklin, California. She is also a graduate of Del Oro High School in Loomis, California. The practical training she received during her years at Northstar-at-Tahoe was particularly influential in shaping her approach to customer service and hospitality, skills that have been instrumental throughout her career.
Born in Rock Springs, Ms. Arbo enjoys reading, sewing and playing pickleball outside of her professional commitments. She is dedicated to her family, which includes one daughter and three grandsons. Looking ahead, Ms. Arbo intends to continue advancing toward her personal and professional goals at Magnolia Gallery & Inn. She remains passionate about her work and values the relationships she builds with guests, whether occupancy increases or allows for more focused attention on those already present.
Ms. Arbo attributes much of her success to the joy she finds in being surrounded by people and the foundational training she received early in her career. Her journey reflects a commitment to excellence in hospitality and an enduring enthusiasm for connecting with others through her work.
