Hello, I'm Alexa.

And I cannot stand writing bios for myself. Being asked to summarize who I am in a short paragraph always feels like a monumental task, mostly because I'm a lot. A lot of interests, a lot of talents, a lot of projects, and a whole lot of personality, so I'll try to let my work speak for itself, but here's the brief summary you probably came looking for:

• My name is pronounced UH-LEKS-UH HINE-RICK, but call me Alex
• Social media strategist and professional speaker specializing in accessibility
• Millennial who relocated from Chicago to St. Petersburg, Florida
• Columbia College Chicago (2013) B.F.A. in Advertising Art Direction
