Christy Alexander is the founder of WorkSmart Coworking & Meeting Space, where entrepreneurs can connect, collaborate and grow their businesses.



Achieving Your Entrepreneurial Vision

Entrepreneurship can be rewarding, and thoughts of independence are exciting, but the life of an entrepreneur isn’t a good fit for everyone.

Christy understands - without doubt, starting a new business is a challenge. But if you are built for it, the challenges of entrepreneurship can be professionally and personally rewarding.

For Christy Alexander, community is everything. The idea behind WorkSmart is simple: provide working professionals a place to complete tasks and host meetings in a professional setting rather than a home office or neighborhood coffee shop, where distractions are rampant and privacy is scarce.

The member-driven organization offers a variety of packages, depending on needs, and provides a host of day-to-day services, including office and conference room rentals.
