In episode 17 I interview Alexis DeBerry. Alexis is a driven event planner and producer with extensive expertise in corporate, social events and diplomatic relations. Her passionate commitment for service excellence, and drive to foster environments of relaxed, yet refined ambiance, have been buttressed by her many years in the luxury hospitality industry with the Ritz Carlton. Building on this service of excellence, Alexis’s international diplomacy skills blossomed while working with such notable groups as the U.S. Global Leadership Coalition, the World Bank, US China Business Council, National U.S. Arab Chamber of Commerce, the Atlantic Council; and embassies including the Embassy of the Peoples Republic of China, and the Embassy of the Kingdom of Bahrain. This invaluable diplomatic experience has allowed Alexis to craft the perfect environment for notable VIP guests including His Royal Highness Prince Khalid Al-Faisal, The First Lady of Zambia Madam Esther Lungu, and His Excellency Ali Al-Naimi.
A native of Snyder, New York, Alexis earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Musical Theater from Howard University in Washington, DC. Alexis relocated from Washington, DC to Saudi Arabia to join a prominent research institution.
