Introduce Yourself/Tell About Yourself: I’m Alexa, I’m 19 years old and I currently study fashion communication at university. I work part time in river island and I also create content on Instagram! I’m very good at the American accent which will come very handy for when I live in NYC in the future 😉 I’m a very friendly bubbly individual who’s very out going and I’m always up for a laugh 

What Inspires You Every day? : My friends and family inspire me, there so amazing at everything and always push me to do my best 

What is some words of wisdom you live by?:Everything happens for a reason…

What is your ultimate goal in life? : I would genuinely say to be happy and healthy and to just generally be smashing life with my friends and family. It’s all about having a good time 

 One sensible goal in life though would be to be in my dream career which is in the fashion industry. 

How have you been during the pandemic and how has it affected you? : Personally for me, lockdown was fine. I was so busy previous to lockdown. I had a year out before I started university so in the year out I was working 2 jobs and was generally so busy and tired so it was nice to just stop and take a break. However, I got bored eventually as did everyone else… but I think it helped me to really think about things and it put in to perspective what was really important to me and now I’ll never take things like going round to my nan and grandads house for granted or going out for food and drinks etc! I have 4 younger sisters so was nice to spend time with them. I now know how to make banana bread like the rest of the uk so that’s great I guess?

What is a positive message you would like to give others? : Don’t let anyone bring you down and don’t have any regrets! Like I said before everything happens for a reason

 I’d also say don’t care about what anybody thinks just go for it and don’t look back! Is it one day or today? 

Chase your dreams!!!

What questions would you like to ask others?:How are you? My dms on Instagram are always open if you’d like to talk
