In 2018, Alexa migrated to Charlotte as Venezuela faced an extreme political and economic crisis. Starting over required learning a new language, adapting to a new culture, and building a new life from the ground up.
In Charlotte, Alexa found Carolinas CARE Partnership, and through her work there, she discovered a passion for health communication and the power of community. CCP became the place where she could apply her skills in new ways while also learning how education and outreach can truly change lives.
