She grew up in New York City and went to Saint Ann's School alongside her Bringing Rain (2003) costar, Paz de la Huerta. Alexis spent many of her summers, growing up, in a small South New Jersey shore town, Sea Isle City. Also, during high school, she attended some classes at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts and appeared in a number of plays there.[1]. She dated actor Michael Pitt. She currently resides in Los Angeles.
