She was born on July 15, 2000 to Donald Ward and Christal Johnson in Topeka, Kansas.
Alexis graduated from Seaman High School in 2018. After graduation she dabbled in numerous different hobbies and jobs until she came to find her forever job with Sunflower Support in Topeka working as a direct support professional and driver. She found her passion helping people get to where they need to be, everyday activities, making them see their purpose in life.
Alexis loved Black Veil Brides music and spending time with her family and friends. When she needed to find her outlet, she would ride around with her music blaring, and wind up at the lake talking to the moon. Alexis loved horror movies and watching them with her sister. She loved to keep up on the new TikTok's with her brother Riley, and stay up late and talk about life with her brother Tyler. Alexis was her mother's life line and backbone.
