Since third grade, Alexis wanted to be a writer, and she's been grateful to see her dreams come true. Her passion for writing and reading led her to study English and Creative Writing in undergrad and grad school and to continually find ways to expand her writing repertoire, from writing for newspapers and magazines to creating content for websites and developing grant proposals for non-profits.
Areas of interest include education, cultural competency, travel, literature, media studies, film studies, gender studies, women's rights, social justice, and non-profits.
Besides writing and reading, in her spare time, Alexis likes to practice Tae Kwon Do, attempt new yoga poses, and make up songs on her piano.
