Alexis is a wonderfully genuine and strong crusader for women and girls. She is uniquely able to talk about women's issues in a way that feels motivating, inclusive and articulate. She represents the women's movement in a way that makes me incredibly proud - she has big ideas, a big heart and an incredible work ethic. I am positive that she is going to create real change in her lifetime."

"The one lecture Alexis gave during my grad school class at USC was worth my
entire USC tuition. I swear, a light just went off while she was talking and it has
profoundly changed the entire direction of my life and my future. She spoke
with wisdom, eloquence and inspiration that was truly electrifying.
The first time Alexis Jones spoke to our students she closed to cheers and a standing
ovation. The next morning I was greeted at school by a mass of students who had to
have her address in order to write to her. When Alexis returned this year for a second
visit, our girls were excited to greet her home. Never imagining she could top her
first presentation, we were once again blown away. "
