I'm Alexis Williams, Regional Admissions Counselor for the Mississippi Gulf Coast, Hattiesburg,
Florida panhandle, New Orleans, and greater Mobile, Alabama.
I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Ole Miss in 2000 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in journalism and an emphasis in public relations.
While at Ole Miss, I was active in the Associated Student Body, served as sorority president and as a staff writer for the Daily Mississippian.
I’m a native of Holly Springs, but have lived on the Mississippi Gulf Coast since 2002.
My favorite thing about Ole Miss is that we are like a small family.
No matter where I seem to travel or live, I always meet somebody with an Ole Miss connection.
As a student, I loved the fact that wherever I went on campus, I usually saw someone I knew.
I was an admissions counselor’s dream, because I never really wanted to go anywhere else.
My parents were both Ole Miss graduates, so they always took me to campus for different events
(I even remember a time when we could drive into the Grove).
I can’t imagine myself having gone anywhere else.
Fun Facts:
Secret indulgence/guilty pleasure(s): I don’t think it’s secret or guilty, but I love yoga and try to find the time to practice.
Favorite Food(s): Sushi, fried oysters, and cheese and crackers
If I had to eat dinner with one person who would it be and why? My brother, Rob.
He died a few years ago after a very courageous battle with cancer, and I miss him dearly.
If I were trapped on an island with one person who would it be and why? I would have to pick two—my husband and my son.
Favorite place you have traveled to: The Atacama Desert in northern Chile
Favorite Book(s): Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole
