Growing up in Wine Country, Daeja Vogensen realized early on how crucial tourism and travel is to communities. During college at California State University, Chico, Daeja nabbed a coveted internship with PRA in 2018. As her intern period came to end, the PRA team recognized her natural ability and passion for the industry and did not want to lose her. Thankfully, the feeling was mutual! Daeja’s ability to stay organized and calm during stressful situations is one of her greatest strengths, and it was proven during a 20,000-person transportation event for a holiday party. As she recalls, “The two-day event was by far total madness but so worth every long night and no sleep. Nothing beats standing on a curb with your team and guide staff all night long!”

When Daeja isn’t making sure thousands of people are getting to their destination on time, you’ll find the California native taking day trips to Bodega Bay or wine tasting through the Dry Creek Valley, cheers’ing with friends and family!
