Alexandra grew up in East Texas and graduated from the University of Texas at Austin in 2009 with a BA in Anthropology. She moved to the hill country in 2014 and earned her CPC in 2019. She enjoys discovering new music, listening to non-fiction podcasts, birdwatching and reading.
An only child of social worker parents living among the red dirt and pine trees of East Texas, She learned independence and self-reliance from a young age. A thirst for knowledge led her to Austin where she graduated with a BA in Anthropology from the University of Texas. After a string of unfulfilling jobs and ten years in the city, Alexandra moved back to the countryside and discovered medical coding. She loves coding because it combines the twin pleasures of working from home and the need to constantly expand one’s skill set. In her free time, she enjoys discovering new music, listening to non-fiction podcasts, birdwatching and reading.
