Founder & CEO · Client Financing
Lexi Farr
Former high school math teacher turned founder and CEO of Client Financing, the customer financing platform helping more than 500 businesses offer affordable payments to every customer.
Biography
Before she ran a financing company, Lexi Farr ran a classroom. She spent more than nine years as a high school math teacher, and worked nights as a suite attendant for the Utah Jazz to help support her family.
In the summer of 2023, a conversation with her brother, Jantzen Fugate, changed her direction. Jantzen had spent years helping businesses find funding, and together they saw the same gap again and again: businesses losing sales because customers couldn't pay all at once, and financing that stopped at a single lender. Two weeks before the new school year began, Lexi left teaching to build Client Financing full time.
As CEO, Lexi leads the company's team and day-to-day operations. Under her leadership, Client Financing has grown to serve more than 500 businesses and over 100,000 of their customers. She still runs it like a teacher: make it simple, make it clear and make sure nobody gets left behind. Lexi is a wife and a mother of two daughters.
