Alexia received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, from the University of Alabama in Huntsville, with a concentration in sculpture. During those years, she received multiple academic awards such as; the Excellence in Sculpture Award (2017) from the University of Alabama in Huntsville, The Lonnie McCormick Scholarship for Excellence in the Arts (2016-2017), and the Women’s Studies Award (2012). After her studies she began a career as an art handler at the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco. She worked in San Francisco, showing works throughout small galleries in the Bay Area until Covid fell upon the world.

After the whirlwind of Covid19, Alexia left the city behind to travel the Americas in a Tacoma that was topped with a 1989 Six Pack camper. Living in a space with approximately 100 square feet of space and another person, didn’t leave much room for power tools and heavy materials. Over the last three years, she began creating watercolors and ink drawings as a traveling artist. Traveling from cities in Canada, through the ruins across Peru. As travels are coming to an end, she is in search for a new studio space to deepen her roots. In wonder of where life will take her next.
