Alex was born and raised in Foxdale, Saskatchewan. She grew up taking naps in the combine, picking wild Saskatoon berries, and ski-dooing through fields. She moved to BC to be with her husband in 2017, and though she misses the prairies, she has absolutely loved exploring what BC (especially Kelowna!) has to offer.
Alex has always been drawn to business. Having started her career in the painting industry, Alex owned a successful painting business first in Saskatoon and then in Kamloops. She's also spent time working in furniture, the stair and rail industry alongside contractors and builders, and even had a little cheesecake business for a short span. Alex has a hard time sitting still and is always looking towards the next thing.
Alex received her real estate license in 2021. She became a partner at MacDermott Holmes in the Spring of 2022. Through her previous experience of running a business, she knows the most important thing is to lead with authenticity and transparency. Every client is treated like a friend, and she works for them with a fierce sense of responsibility to do everything she can to deliver them the best results.
What Alex has loved most about living in the Okanagan is the "morning at the lake smell" almost every day, the access to so many incredible camping spots, and all the cherries. Kelowna has a "support local" attitude that she has never felt anywhere else, bringing a unique sense of community, and inspiration for the entrepreneurial spirit that was difficult to find in the prairies. You can find her paddle boarding or camping on the weekends in the summer, or baking at home or reading a good book in the winter…if she's not out door knocking that day.
