Bio
Jordan Bainer
Alexia inspired me to have deep confidence in my abilities. With a very trusting, hands-off style, she fostered a culture of self-belief. She would be there when you needed her to be there, subsequently avoiding the messiness that comes from micro-managing. Since working alongside Alexia, I've become a more thoughtful, intrepid manager.

Appointing Alexia to head up the account group at Lipman Hearne was a wise decision by firm leadership. She's a natural leader with an easy and open communication style, which builds trust among her team. Alexia is also whip-smart, market-savvy, and 110% dedicated to her work. You couldn't ask for a better account director, team leader, and colleague.
