Hi, I’m Lexi. I am at MCCC to finally finish earning my associate degree that I started over 10 years ago.
One thing I never expected to do when I came back to school was join the student paper.
However after joining the Agora my second semester back I fell in love with writing for the very first time.
This semester I was given the position of Features Editor. I am so excited to be an assistant editor for Agora this semester and to work with my fellow editors and staff.
I do not know for sure yet if or what I want to pursue as a career after graduating.
I love kids and have always had a passion to work with them in some capacity. However, joining the Agora has made me consider some sort of future in writing, too.
Four years ago, my husband and I became primary caretakers of my now four and six year old niece and nephew, and they are my world and inspiration.
I love reading with them and listening to the ridiculously creative stories they come up with themselves.
The capacity for knowledge and the nonstop energy that kids have never ceases to amaze me!
I also love arts in most every form but most significantly photography. I got my first small digital camera in middle school and fell in love.
When I was in high school, my parents got me a Nikon DSLR. I took pictures of everything and became the family photographer.
In the last decade since, I have practiced immensely, invested in an even better camera, and started my own small photography business.
I love viewing the world from behind my lens and capturing moments of time.
If I am not behind my camera or chasing my littles you will probably find me dancing and singing around my house or binge watching Marvel movies with my husband.
I never could have anticipated being a part of the Agora but I am very excited to be here and look forward to all the experiences coming my way.
