YourFacilitator

Alexis is a productivity, time-management and efficiency expert.  She spent the first 15+ years of her career managing operations and HR at several early-stage start-ups, where there was always way more to do than people to do it.  But she also believes that work-life balance is essential for everyone, even though the definition may be different for everyone.

As a result, Alexis began to develop and implement productivity systems in the companies she worked for, and in her life, to ensure that goals were met, balls were not dropped, and that, most importantly, she and those around her were feeling good.

Alexis’ productivity and time-management systems, techniques, tricks and hacks can be customized to any team or individual.  Her aim is to help you do all that you want to do, with less effort and less stress.

Alexis is also SPHR, SHRM-SCP and RCC certified.
