Bio
Shannon Donohue, CFRE
Alex helped our law school put on a dinner & gala for 450 VIP guests at Union Station in October 2016, including several Supreme Court Justices. She balanced a lot of elements of the event planning process, wasn't fazed by last-second changes, and communicated thoroughly with us throughout the lead-up process. She also managed to keep smiling and stay on task when it got stressful and chaotic at times, which was highly appreciated. While the event itself was a major team effort, Alex's positive attitude stood out and helped to make it a wonderful, successful evening.
