Alexa graduated from Virginia Tech in 2020. She majored in Water: Resources, Management and Policy, and minored in Environmental Science and International Studies. While an undergraduate she served as president of the American Water Resources Association student chapter at Virginia Tech. She also was a 2018 Oregon Sea Grant Summer Scholar intern with the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife to survey bay shellfish populations. In 2019 she interned at the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation to research agricultural best management practices to inform the 2020 Agricultural Needs Assessment.
