The faces behind Lemon and Lime Digital
Lemon and Lime Digital … funny name, huh? It’s important to point out here that while we take what we do very seriously, we try not to take ourselves too seriously. The name actually came from Alex’s love of cooking – when she cooks a meal she will often add lemon and lime juice to dishes to help bring out other flavours. This runs parallel to our business philosophy – bringing out your business’ flavour!

So who are we? Let us introduce ourselves!
Alex Hammett
Lemon and Lime Digital was started at our kitchen table by Alex in 2016. At that time, Alex was working for a not for profit in the environmental industry handling their various communications and before she knew it, was being approached by other businesses to help them out too!
Alex has a Bachelor Degree in Media and Communications from the University of Adelaide and has pretty much done it all in her career – press releases and speech writing, website development and maintenance, event planning, communications, social media, administration, project management, program development and so much more. With excellent skills and experience in communications and social media, along with a genuine love for it, Alex has built a reputation for delivering high quality outcomes for her clients.
Since starting the business, Alex has found that the niche she really loves to work in is the association and not for profit space. Through Lemon and Lime, and in her career, prior to being CEO at LLD, Alex has worked with a large number of associationa and not for profits and has garnered extensive experience in the nuances of these businesses, in particular membership, sponsorship, governance and business planning.
Alex serves as a Board Member for Sport SA, Fleurieu Regional Waste Authority and as an Independent Member of the City of Unley Business and Economic Advisory Committee.
Some fun facts about Alex – she absolutely loves New York in the winter! It has all her favourite things – Christmas lights, snow, warm cookies and coffee! On the weekends, you are most likely to find Alex with her head in a book, as she is an avid reader – currently averaging 150 books a year!
