Alexis is a native of Saluda, North Carolina, where family ties run deep and where she was raised in her family’s restaurant, which has been a local fixture for decades. Alexis’s upbringing was filled with warmth, laughter, and a strong sense of community and hard work from an early age. Witnessing the dedication and hard work of her family instilled in Alexis a deep appreciation for hospitality and entrepreneurship.
Despite her connection to the restaurant, Alexis harbored a passion for interior design and real estate. From a young age, she found herself captivated by the transformative power of design, often losing herself in the pages of Home & Garden magazines or watching HGTV for inspiration. It was clear to Alexis that real estate or interior design was where her heart truly belonged, offering the perfect blend of creativity, business, and the opportunity to guide others on their journey to finding their dream home or creating their dream spaces.
Alexis took a leap of faith and started real estate school in mid-2022, completing her training and earning her license by January 2023. Determined to find her place in the real estate world, she joined the Saluda Office as an Office Administrator.
Outside of work, Alexis finds joy in spending quality time with her three beautiful children. Together, they explore the great outdoors, engage in spontaneous dance parties, and create cherished memories that will last a lifetime. Alexis’s love for her family and children is evident in everything she does, and she treasures the close bond she shares with her mother, who continues to inspire her strength, resilience, and entrepreneurial spirit.
Currently, Alexis resides in downtown Saluda, just steps away from The Purple Onion, the restaurant that holds a special place in her heart. She embraces the small-town bustle and vibrant energy of her community and is eagerly looking forward to the opportunities that lie ahead.
