Alex Reeds earned her Bachelor of Science in psychology from Ferris State University, where she cultivated her passion for philanthropy as the director of the largest student-run service project in the state of Michigan, the BIG Event.

She joined the Mike Ilitch School of Business in March 2022 after beginning her career at the University of Michigan, first with the National Major Gifts Program and then as a member of the Penny W.
