## Biography

### Early Life

When she was in middle school, her parents found success seemingly overnight, and Alexis's family became rich. Her friend, Kelly, took advantage of Alexis's newfound wealth, manipulating her into buying whatever Kelly wanted. Alexis was initially happy to do so, as she didn't care much for the money and just wanted to keep her friendship. But when they got to high school, Kelly wanted nothing more to do with Alexis, and warned her not to speak with her again. Alexis once forgot this rule, and Kelly retaliated by having a group of her guy friends jump Alexis and beat her up.

### Career

After 5 1/2 years in college, Alexis earned her bachelor's degree in general studies, as she couldn't think of something she wanted to pursue. After graduating, Alexis bounced between different jobs, but never felt like something was right for her. Her first job was as a receptionist at her parents' company. She then worked as a waitress, a factory worker, a pharmaceutical rep, and a post office employee.

While she was still working for the government, she met the Andersons after her brother got entangled in a delicate situation , and began helping them with a criminal investigation. After a few months, they hired her as an intern. Alexis found she loved working at Ace Security.
