Our Team
Amanda - CEO & Founder
Hello there! I’m a local Austinite– born here, raised abroad and then back here for college and beyond. I’m passionate about all-things-eco-friendly, yoga, running, healthy eating, etc. I also firmly believe that a cup of jasmine tea makes everything better. I love working hard to make sure our clients received the best service possible and I love the process of continuous improvement. My hospitality experience, my degree in accounting and a deep-seeded gratitude and respect for clients & employees alike have created an unparalleled eco-cleaning service that is The Purple Fig. I started the Fig more than 16 years ago and I’m looking forward to many more– thank you Austin, TX!

Gavin - Sales & Team Coordinator
As an Austin resident for almost a decade, Gavin has seen the city go through some major changes! Once he gets his marketing degree, you can expect him spearheading the growth of eco-friendly companies and doing all he can to both enjoy and preserve our great outdoors. Gavin will always find time for swimming (even if it's just in the tub!) and believes anything can be fixed with a cup of jasmine tea.

Lex - Field Coordinator
Lex finds that working at the Fig is a great way to explore Austin! She may be somewhat new to the area but has already marked Pflugerville Lake as a top spot for watching sunsets. At work, you’ll catch her chugging along to her favorite podcasts, but weekends are reserved for quiet coffee mornings on her balcony and quality time with her family.

I try to look at things not as the glass is half full or half empty, but as there's something in my cup so at least I'm not thirsty 🙂
