Scottsdale-based entrepreneurs Brandon and Natalie Dawson have bestowed a big honor upon President Donald J. Trump.
Cardone Ventures co-founder and CEO Brandon Dawson, who is the newly appointed vice chairman of the American Academy of Hospitality Sciences, presented the president with a lifetime achievement award alongside his wife, Natalie Dawson, who serves as the company’s president.
The event was hosted at Trump’s prestigious Mar-a-Lago Country Club on New Year’s Eve, according to a press release.
This award is the most prestigious emblem of achievement and true quality in the hospitality and luxury services industries worldwide. All its recipients are deemed to be of pinnacle quality and global recognition.
This year’s Star Diamond Award presentation is particularly significant given it honors the President of the United States. President Trump was honored with the highest level of recognition, the Six Star Diamond Award, in appreciation for his leadership, vision, and dedication to the country.
For business owners in Arizona, this award presentation is a shining example of what’s possible when you combine vision, determination, and community support.
“This was an incredibly special evening for me and Natalie. Not only did we get to celebrate the new year with President Trump, but we also got to honor and thank him personally for his unwavering commitment to serving the community,” Mr. Dawson said. “We deeply appreciate everything he has done and continues to do. What a great way to ring in the New Year.”
