Alexis Belpulsi grew up in Valley City, Ohio. She discovered her fascination with the weather practically at birth—she was always enthralled by all types of weather. This led to her expanding her academic career by beginning to study meteorology at Ohio University in 2023. Alexis has been a dedicated member of the Ohio University Chapter of the American Meteorological Society and an on-air forecaster for WOUB NewsWatch. Alexis has always been most interested in extreme weather events like tornadoes, hurricanes, blizzards, etc. She hopes to one day use the skills and knowledge she gains from her experiences in her academic years to help people as best as she can when it comes to events like those. Outside of meteorology, Alexis likes to play basketball, play video games, and spend time with family and friends.
