“Stacy is a dynamic financial leader who combines strategic insight with operational discipline,” Greg Kennealey, CEO of Peregrine Hospitality, said in a statement. “She brings extensive experience leading finance functions across high-growth, consumer-facing brands, and her background in guiding companies through transformation will be instrumental as we continue to strengthen our financial foundation and scale our operations.”
Galligan joins Peregrine Hospitality from Embark, where she served as managing director and practice leader, overseeing finance and accounting consulting services for clients across multiple industries. Her prior experience includes serving as chief financial officer at Punch Bowl Social, Pure Barre, and Smashburger, where she led financial planning, capital management and business transformation initiatives.
