Born in one of the most influential families in the business field, James Carr Walton, also known as Jim Walton, is the heir to the fortune of Walmart, co-founded by his dad, Sam Walton. Since he comes from a famous business family, James' personal life has also been an interesting topic to many people.
To talk about his personal life, Jim has been happily married to Lynne McNabb Walton. The couple shares four children, who have already grown up. So, in today's article, let's get to know in detail about Jim C. Walton's daughter, Alice Anne Walton.

Then, Alice Ann Walton's siblings, Thomas L. Walton and James M. Walton, were born in September 1983 and August 1987, respectively. As the firstborn, Jim C. Walton's daughter might have been ecstatic upon the arrival of her baby brothers.
Coming from an influential family, the Walton siblings must have had a wonderful time growing up together in Bentonville, Arkansas. While growing up, Alice went on family camping trips and canoeing, and as a result, she loves the outdoors. Hence, she remains committed to the protection of natural resources.
Also, she is the niece of Alice Louise Walton, Rob Walton, and the late John Walton.
Jim C. Walton's Daughter Is Educated
The Bentonville native maintains close ties to the communities and people of her hometown. She is well-educated and has a Master's degree. To talk more about her educational background, Alice went to Wake Forest University in order to pursue her undergraduate degree. From there, she graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Spanish.
Later, the eldest Walton went to the Stanford Graduate School of Education, from where she holds a Master's degree in education policy. Moreover, she is also on the Board of Trustees at her undergraduate alma mater. So now, let's further find out what she does.
Is Involved In The Walton Family Foundation
The Wake Forest graduate is an education advocate. She chairs the board of directors of the Walton Family Foundation, which focuses on charter schools, environmental issues, and water-related problems. It was endowed by Sam Walton in 1987.
There, Sam Walton's granddaughter has served on the Environment, K-12 Education, and Home Region Program committees. In addition, her personal and professional ventures or experiences have helped her shape strong connections to each of the foundation's charity programs.
As an education advocate, the GSE alumna has gained experience by working on K-12 education scholarships and data analysis of the foundation. Furthermore, she has also served as director of student services at KIPP Denver Collegiate High School, along with holding a managerial position at SCORE! Tutoring Center in Alexandria, Virginia.
At SCORE!, Ms. Walton taught a diverse community of students, which helped her gain valuable experience in operating a business. In addition, her interest in youth development programs sparked after she worked directly with students. She is now focused on the areas like immigration advocacy, technology education, and initiatives that promote healthy lifestyles.
Other than that, Alice is also involved in the real estate market. In June 2017, she entered Baltimore's real estate market and planned a Revival for one part of the town. She was an investor in Hotel Revival's renovation. Apart from that, she has also invested in Walmart and Sam's Club Store.
All in all, the gorgeous lady must have earned a considerable sum in her professional career. Moreover, as she has been involved in different business ventures, Alice Anne Walton's net worth must be a commendable sum. On the other hand, her dad, Jim, has a fortune worth $68 billion.
Is Happily Married
Well, we discussed about Alice's professional ventures. Now, let's take a look at her personal life. Jim C. Walton's daughter is happily married to Joseph Thomas Proietti of Merced, California. The couple tied the knot on September 6, 2009.
The wedding ceremony of the duo took place at Camp War Eagle in Rogers and was officiated by the Rev. Arthur F. Fogartie. The bride donned a silk chiffon strapless gown featuring handcrafted flowers, beaded accents, and a split-front overskirt. As Alice Anne Walton's father escorted her, she carried a crescent bouquet of gardenias.
Furthermore, Amy von Diest Carlson was her maid of honor while Tracy Proietti, Allyson Wettengel, Katy Proietti, Jana Rosenblatt, Miriam Imoberstag, Jo Anne Phillips, and Jana Rosenblatt were bridesmaid. On the other hand, Chris Proietti was the best man, whereas Tom Walton, Steuart Walton, Toby Ernst, James Walton, Drew Ernst, and George Dingeldein were groomsmen.
Talking about Alice Anne Walton's husband, Joseph is the son of Melissa Proietti and Don Proietti. He attended the University of Baltimore School of Law. He graduated in 2006 from the college, which is less than a mile from the Hotel Revival. The husband-wife pair have made considerable donations to the college over the years.
All in all, it has been many years since Joseph and Alice walked down the aisle. However, it remains a mystery if the duo has any children. As Sam Walton's granddaughter, Alice A. Proietti, aka Annie Proietti, is not active on social media, it has become equally challenging to dig out more information about her personal life.
Nonetheless, Mrs. Proietti must be living a wonderful life away from the media limelight. We hope she reveals more about herself in the coming days. We wish her a successful career ahead, and hopefully, we can see her business flourishing in the coming days.
