With an enthusiasm for all things celebratory, Alex Deines has spent her professional career designing and coordinating exceptional experiences throughout Southern California. A personal love of travel, music, and unique events helped Alex earn her bachelor’s degree in Event Management at California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo. At PRA Events, Inc., she now enjoys helping curate shared moments for groups traveling to Orange County. A background of concert logistics, hotel recreation, city event organization, and marketing and promotions for various hospitality organizations has provided Alex with years of experience bringing smiles to faces and a sense of wonder for event attendees. Her passion and drive have earned her both a CMP (2018) and DMCP (2019) designation, along with a Smart Meetings Magazine ‘Smart Women in Meetings – Rising Star’ award (2019). When not dreaming up new soirees, Alex enjoys attending events for herself such as music festivals or low-key get togethers with friends and family. She is always up for something tasty and loves trips to the local coffee shop with her husband and two children. She finds balance through her yoga practice and loves to escape to nature (glamping-style) to rejuvenate.
