Who We Are

Uphill Edge Consulting exists to help hospitality and small business owners build operations that actually work.

Founded by former business owner Stephanie Anderson Stroup, Uphill Edge combines boots-on-the-ground experience, sharp listening, technology expertise, and creative problem solving into clear, sustainable results—without losing the human heart of the business.

Stephanie and her team of hospitality, marketing, and event specialists work directly with hotel and resort owners. We will work together to uncover pain points, define goals, and create measurable solutions.

What We Offer


HOSPITALITY CONSULTING

Your property isn’t one-size-fits-all—and your operations shouldn’t be either.

OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT

Strong operations don’t come from big overhauls—they come from getting the small things right.


EXIT STRATEGIES

Your exit should be as intentional as the business you built.

INTERIM HOTEL MANAGEMENT

Whether you want to take your time finding the right long-term fit, or you want to take a vacation—we are here to manage your property for the short term.
