My name is Alexa, and I was born and raised in California, where I practically grew up in the Pacific Ocean. After getting my bachelor's degree in ecological and environmental science at UC Santa Barbara in 2018, I completed my master's with Johns Hopkins in environmental science and policy in 2022. This blog is a space where I’ll share insights, stories, and updates on environmental preservation, aiming to inspire and inform everyone interested in making a positive impact. Let’s explore, learn, and work together to make a difference!
