Keynote speaker: Alexis Higgins, CEO of Tulsa Airports

  • Presentation title: Cleared for Takeoff:  The Journey of Tulsa’s First Female Airport CEO
  • Presentation summary: Alexis Higgins is a life-long Tulsan who never expected her career to land at the airport.  Having worked in manufacturing, financial services, and legal settings, Higgins acknowledges the role that luck has played in her journey and will share how her curiosity, determination, and empathy all prepared her to make the leap to the C-Suite.  

 

Ms. Higgins has been with the Tulsa Airports Improvement Trust for over 20 years and was named Chief Executive Officer in March 2019 after serving previously as Chief Operating Officer and Deputy Director of Marketing & Community Relations. As Chief Executive Officer, she develops organizational policy and administers all activities associated with the operation of Tulsa International Airport and Tulsa Riverside Airport.

She graduated with honors from the University of Tulsa Business School, where she was named Outstanding Marketing Graduate, with a degree in Marketing and double minors in Management and Russian Language. She achieved the professional designation of Accredited Airport Executive from the American Association of Airport Executives in June 2010.

In addition to her work at the airport, she serves as the past-President of the Oklahoma Airport Operators Association, on the board of Airports Council International-North America, and actively supports Challenge Air for Kids by serving on their Tulsa Fly Day event committee as chair of donor funding.
