Alexa Rand
Youth Poetry Fellow
Alexa (Lexie) Rand is a junior at Liberty High School. After her mom passed when she was little, she started telling stories to keep grief on a page instead of in her head. But it’s annoyingly persistent, so she continues to write poetry and focus on publishing her book, Flower Shop, to truly understand how lost and present relationships change someone’s soul. When she’s not glued to her writing, she is stuck to a volleyball court, singing her heart out in jazz choir, or frivolously buying more flowers.
