We had the good fortune of connecting with Alex De Angelis and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Alex, we’d love to hear about how you approach risk and risk-taking
Really what is risk? People over think this word so much, and by overthinking they don’t do. Your life should be about taking risks about doing something that you didn’t do yesterday, what’s the worst that can happen? You fail? Okay and? When you fail you have no option than bring yourself back up, if you aren’t taking risks in life you aren’t living, you’re just existing.

What should our readers know about your business?
MAAD Events is a catering and event company. We pride ourselves in bringing a modern look to catering while maintaining exceptional quality. Our journey began about a year ago born during the pandemic so you could say setting up a food business mid pandemic is a challenge on its own. Despite that we’ve had our opportunities and have been successful. We’re exciting to keep growing a providing a modern and elegant look to catering and events.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
Food wise south Florida has so much to offer. I would definitely plan out a lunch/dinner itinerary filled with exceptional dining experiences such as the elegant Doma in Wynwood or the eclectic Sushi Kong in South Miami. South Florida also has so much to offer in terms of natural beauty such as the confluence of the Loxahatchee River and Atlantic Ocean at DuBois Park in Jupiter or kayaking through the mangroves in Oleta State Park.
