Having relocated to Scottsdale, Arizona from Southern California in the spring of 2022, Alex was excited to continue her career in the jewelry industry by joining the team at Brinker’s Jewelers at The Silverleaf Club. She previously worked for a family owned, retail jewelry store for 8 years as a sales professional and fell in love with the industry and the joy it brings to clients.  Uniting a customer and that one truly meaningful item is precisely what makes this business enjoyable for Alex. Seeing a client’s face light up when their vision comes to life in a custom design is unequivocally one of the most rewarding aspects of being part of this trade. Alex is currently working towards earning an Applied Jewelry Professional diploma through the Gemological Institute of America and is excited to continue her educational journey.
