TESTIMONIALS

Testimonials

“My experience with Under a Tree over the years has always been extremely positive. We worked together during my time leading Four Seasons Asia Pacific and later while at Starwood Capital creating strategy and concepts for two new brands at the time. At Six Senses, we hired Amy to consult for Pegasus Capital, the brand owner at the time, on a new wellness concept, and I plan to continue to work with Amy and her associates whenever appropriate as the world of wellness continues to deepen and evolve.” 

— NEIL JACOBS, CEO OF SIX SENSES HOTELS, RESORTS, AND SPAS 

“Dart Interests had the pleasure of working with Amy and the Under a Tree team to develop the exciting wellness offerings at Evermore Orlando Resort. The team's knowledge and expertise in the spa industry was evident from the outset, and they helped guide us through the myriad trends and strategies in the industry. Recommendations were supported with financial return analyses and assessment of guest impact. We cannot wait to share the result with the world.”

— STEWART BROWN, DART INTERESTS FLORIDA LLC 

“CHMWarnick had the pleasure of collaborating with the Under a Tree team on the Waldorf Astoria New York. Amy’s reputation in the wellness industry proceeds her, and we share many of the same friends and colleagues. I know I can count on her sound (and expert) advice when I need someone to bounce an idea off of.” 

— RICHARD WARNICK, CHMWARNICK 

“Amy has brought tremendous value to our team at Bryte. Her expert knowledge of the wellness industry, and her extensive network of connections, has helped guide our decisions on the continued development of our products and our expansion and implementation strategies. Amy has been with us from the beginning as we began our very first hospitality pilots, and she and her team have been invaluable partners in our scale up phase, working side-by-side to help open doors, but more importantly to deliver an incredible guest experience with our Bryte Balance product line.”

— LUKE KELLY, CEO OF BRYTE

“The work that Under a Tree does ignites purpose and clarity into the programming and vision of a project, which serves to streamline design efforts and fuel creativity around how to create an authentic guest experience that drives revenue for the owner. We love working with the UaT team from the onset of a project through occupancy.”

— VERONICA SCHREIBEIS SMITH, CEO & FOUNDING PRINCIPAL OF VERA ICONICA ARCHITECTURE 

“Amy is a force of nature. She is brilliant, warm, intuitive, and always forward-thinking. I have watched her work with great admiration and have recently described her as our Wellness Doula. She helps those who don't understand wellness to understand its meaning, and she can develop a proforma as expertly as a vision for a new modality. I have personally learned so much from her."

— ADAM ROLSTON, INC ARCHITECTURE & DESIGN LLC

“Under a Tree has been an absolute game-changer for us! Working with Amy McDonald and Diane Trieste has been a phenomenal experience. They're both incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, and they go above and beyond to create tailor-made solutions. I'm super grateful for their expertise, which has truly transformed our business, as we are new to the wellness industry. They genuinely care about their clients, and it shows in everything they do. A huge thank you to Amy, Diane, and the whole team!”

— DAYSON JOHNSON, MAGLEBY CONSTRUCTION

“We retained Amy to work with us on Schweitzer Mountain Resort in Idaho for spa design, business market analysis and modeling, proforma, and operations practices and staff recruitment. Her work was first rate, and the results speak for themselves, as Schweitzer’s wellness area will be opening soon.”

— ROBERT HOLMES, THG ADVISORY GROUP

“Amy and her team had a high level of professionalism and together we launched acupuncture and massage, a Weight Management Program, revised our Executive Health Program and developed a variety of marketing, client surveys and events among other initiatives. No matter who on the UaT team we worked with I was confident that work would be delivered on time, professionally and with our long-term success in mind.”
