Chelsea’s passion has always been creating memorable experiences. As a young child growing up in Hendersonville, TN, she put all her energy into creating fun themed parties with friends or setting the family dinner table beautifully. While attending Paul Smith’s College in Upstate New York (whose tagline is “it’s all about the experience”), Chelsea had the opportunity to learn from some of the best in the industry through hotel site visits and trade shows, spearheading new event traditions across campus, and learning the ins and outs of fine dining directly from the owner of The Palm Restaurant.  After graduation, Chelsea began her career in hospitality and over the course of a decade, has experienced all facets of designing and executing exceptional events. She is known for being service-hearted, a creative partner, and putting her teammates and clients at the center of what she does. She is excited to bring her hotel and event expertise to PRA. When not working an event, Chelsea can be found with her miniature dachshund, Mowgli, going to a pilates class, watching Star Wars, arranging flowers, or crafting greeting cards!
