Alexandra’s passion for writing has existed ever since she bought her first journal in the third grade. Her dedication to the craft was fostered by many encouraging and memorable teachers from elementary school through college. In the last two decades, she has been many things…a Federal employee, a primary-grade school teacher, a singer/songwriter, a textbook editor, a freelance writer, and a licensed massage therapist.

From 2005 through 2007 Alexandra lived in Santa Barbara, California— a city that is very inspirational to her, and that
served as the setting for her third completed (and first published) novel, saffire_21.

When she’s not writing, Alexandra enjoys hiking, running, swimming, going to see live music, and socializing with her friends (both online and local). She currently resides in Portland, Oregon.

Alexandra strives to live in the moment as much as possible with compassion, gratitude and awareness. She writes with the intention that her work be for the highest good of all involved, and hopes to continue writing as a full-time career.
