About ME

Hi everyone, I’m alex!

I was born and raised in New Jersey, studied Nutrition and Food Science at the University of Vermont, and then moved to sunny California (LA) to pursue my love for yoga and wellness. I now live in San Diego and am pursuing a Masters degree in Psychology.

After moving to LA, I discovered that I loved being surrounded by so many people who cared about the same things that I do - people who value health and wellness. With the growth of social media, everywhere we look we are overloaded with health tips, workout regimens, amazing bodies, and wellness advice. Because of how some of these aspects are portrayed, it’s difficult not to compare ourselves. We get excited to try all the new workouts, diets, and supplements, when half the time we don’t even know if any of it will work for our own bodies.

My goal for this blog is to go deeper than all the surface level content we are constantly faced with. I challenge myself to share the downs of life as well as the ups, and to share the struggles I have faced in wanting myself to look a certain way. I believe in being vulnerable and open, and I hope to inspire others to feel and do the same. In addition to that, I also want to share more information on products and companies that I personally love and support, and how they work for me. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to find out more about me or what I do :)
