About alex
MEET THE OWNER
My name is Alex Mitchell, and I’m a young entrepreneur who grew up in Garnet Valley.
As a competitive swimmer, I learned the importance of discipline and perseverance early on, qualities that have shaped my personal and professional life.
I later developed a passion for cooking, where attention to detail and creativity became essential.
After serving in the military, I sought a new way to combine these experiences and give back to the community.
That’s when I founded AW Locksmith—to bring my dedication, precision, and commitment to service to homes and businesses across Chester and Delaware County. As a veteran, I’m proud to continue serving with the same values that guided me in uniform.
