Congressman Thompson Selects Alexis Williams to Serve in Washington Office

WASHINGTON – Today, U.S. Representative Bennie G. Thompson (MS-02) announced the selection of Jackson native, Alexis Williams, to serve in the role of Scheduler in his Washington, D.C. office.

"Alexis interned in my office for over a year while studying at Howard University," Thompson said. "I know her passion for the state of Mississippi, and it is wonderful to see young residents of the second congressional district work towards giving back to our state. I welcome Alexis to my office with confidence that she will be an asset to our team."

Alexis graduated from St. Andrew's Episcopal School in 2013 and received a Bachelor's of Science in Biology from Howard University in 2018. While at Howard, she was active in the university's student government and volunteered for the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Washington. She also tutored local students who were participants in the Wheeler Creek's Community Development Program.
