Why hello there, I'm Lexi.
And I'm a big believer that "hello" should be extraordinary. I like big, audacious problems; ideas with intention; and stacks of pancakes that exceed the serving size on the back of the box. I believe in pursuing dreams with gumption, in making a meaningful difference. Because impact is at the core of who I am & what I do.
I'm a maker and a storyteller. A Renaissance woman whose magic lies in moxie (n.) -- a boldness of spirit & limitless possibility. Like Leonardo da Vinci, but with more Dad jokes. Or Oprah, sans free car giveaways.
Wait, what? Yep. It all goes back to 2nd grade, when I had to choose one elective class: art or science. Instead, I penciled in a new box & chose "both." (Note to self: That's considered bad-mannered, not badass, in 2nd grade.) So I was given detention. Turns out though, detention was one of the best things that ever happened to me. Because I spent all 46 minutes convincing the principal to let me take both art & science. And it was then that I became wholly & irrevocably -- me.
As a homegrown Californian & Georgetown alum, my life's work is rooted at the intersection of passion x purpose. Between food, technology, community, and social impact. I like boots made for walking and dresses made for doing. I like people who dream BIG. And dance like they mean it. Because otherwise, why bother (really?)
I'm a creative storyteller with strikingly diverse experiences, having worked at companies ranging in size, scope, and mission. My background is in brand, strategy, marketing, and product. Which is the short way of saying I'm the "super glue” between business & technical teams. My superpowers are multi-faceted. I'm really good at making PB&Js, embracing awkward moments, and notably -- leading people to translate ideas to action. Weaving a compelling narrative along the way.
So this is my story. And it's only just beginning.
