Alexandra Lamos
Marketing & Communications Specialist

My name is Alexandra Bechtel, just last year (May 2021) I graduated from Wartburg College with a Business administration degree, with a concentration in management and a minor in leadership. Some things I enjoy doing outside of work are running, shopping, spending time with family, and friends, and being on the water. My sister and I opened our own boutique in January of 2020 and have loved every second it. I am very excited for this next adventure here at LocateSmarter and can’t wait to start my journey.
