Born and raised in Southern California, Alexa found her passion for writing amidst the vibrant landscapes of her upbringing.

Her love for food and cooking started at a young age and was likely thanks to her grandmother, who equipped her with southern roots and endless family recipes that have been passed down for several generations.
