Outside the Office

When she is not busy conquering the financial services world, you can find Alex and her husband, Ty, embarking on exciting adventures as they divide their time between the lively streets of Nashville and the charming landscapes of their beloved East Tennessee. But it’s not just the scenery that keeps Alex smiling—she treasures the moments spent with her tight-knit circle of lifelong friends and their children, embracing her role as the beloved “cool aunt.” 

Alex has a deep passion for animal rescue, with a special fondness for felines. Previously, she dedicated her time as a foster owner, providing temporary homes for vulnerable animals. However, due to her strong connection with her foster pets, many of the fosters found their forever homes with Alex. Currently, Alex and her husband share their home with a loving family of rescues!
