Alexandra Lyon

Alexandra brings a rare blend of experience to the recruiting world. She has a keen understanding of the industry’s demands, culture, and talent needs. She spent the first ten years of her career working on Wall Street in a multitude of roles such as investment banking/advisory, fund derivatives, and merchant banking.

She transitioned into executive search in 2016 and has since earned a strong reputation for her ability to connect high-performing professionals with leading investment firms. Known for her thoughtful approach, industry insight, and high ethical standards, Alexandra has built trusted relationships across the alternative investment landscape.

Alexandra holds a BS in Finance and Economics from NYU Stern, graduating summa cum laude in three years. She is also a trained chef and has worked in restaurants throughout Italy—an experience that further shaped her appreciation for precision, discipline, and excellence.

Outside of work, Alexandra is married and the proud mother of a young daughter, who reminds her every day of the value of curiosity, patience, and learning with humility. Her commitment to integrity and long-term relationships is deeply personal—values she brings not only to her family but to every client and candidate interaction.
