Leadership & Ownership

Andrea Chapman, Founder & Owner

Bringing People Together with Purpose

For more than 20 years, my work has centered on a single core practice: bringing people together through intentional design, clear strategy, and seamless execution.

Haymarket Hospitality is the culmination of three decades of full-cycle entrepreneurship, digital community building, and formal academic training in Tourism and Events Management. My journey has always been guided by a passion for creating meaningful spaces—whether physical, digital, or experiential—where organizations and communities can thrive.

From founding and scaling consumer brands and digital platforms reaching millions worldwide, to presiding over multi-year non-profit boards and steering regional conferences, I have learned that exceptional events require far more than logistical precision. They require deep strategic alignment, clear communication, and an unyielding commitment to care.

Strategic Planning & Operational Systems

Throughout a career spanning 20+ years as a commercial airline captain and 17+ years directing large-scale FAA initiatives at Tetra Tech, my focus has always been on precision, resilience, and strategic foresight.

My work centers on high-stakes operational leadership, complex system design, and zero-defect execution across large teams and multi-faceted programs. At Haymarket Hospitality, I bring that same level of rigor to our Strategic Planning.

While great events and organizational milestones feel effortless on the surface, they rely on airtight logistics, clear contingency management, and robust infrastructure behind the scenes. I specialize in translating big-picture vision into seamless, structured execution—ensuring every project is built on a foundation of operational clarity, risk management, and long-term value.
