Alexander L. Bly

It’s important to see around corners and anticipate challenges.

My Approach

In high school, my best friend and I started a lawn care, landscaping, and snow removal business, and I have been busy ever since – at one point I was working six jobs at a time while being a full-time student to be able to make rent and tuition..  As difficult as it was at the time, I am grateful for the experiences I gained. From running my own business  I am able to understand the perspective of my clients, and the stresses and operational challenges that businesses face every day. I combine that with the sense of hustle I learned to be able to make ends meet, and the ability to quickly judge what aspects in an issue are important, and what are not.

I believe in meeting people where they’re at – no one should feel like they need to put on a professional face (or a suit) to work with me. The work, and the success that comes from it, are all that really matter.

Outside of work, I still oversee my lawn care company, and spend time with family and friends. I also use downtime to listen to history podcasts, read, about World War I, and have my heart broken by whatever Minnesota sports team is playing.
