Hi! I’m Alexis, a graduate of Columbia University, where I studied English literature. My favorite part of my undergraduate experience was studying Shakespeare abroad in London: I was able to see shows performed in The Globe theater, and even took a day trip to Stratford-upon-Avon, Shakespeare’s hometown, to see the Royal Shakespeare Company perform! I love telling stories, and if you’re working on telling one of your own (whether it’s writing your college essay, or telling yourself all the reasons why algebra will be useful in the real world), I want to be right there beside you. Outside of learning, I love writing, singing, performing, dancing, exercising, and rewatching The Good Place.
