About Me:

Alexa Victoria Schmidt

I grew up outside of Salem, OR and had the pleasure of attending the University of Oregon, University of Denver’s Publishing Institute, and Portland State University with a Master’s of Science in Book Publishing.

If the aesthetic of this webpage tells you anything, it’s that I consider myself an old soul and participating in the act of nostalgia is one of my favorite hobbies. I collect records, books, band tees, plants, and chaotic memories. You can find me connecting with my loved ones and nature when I can, with a cup of coffee (or wine) in hand as much as possible. I’m a downhill skier, karaoke singer, video gamer, and food lover who’s always thinking about their next meal.

I hope to spend the next five years learning more about myself and creating a stable life, in addition to working in the publishing world. Learning has always been a constant in my life, so I hope that my love for the world can only expand with years of trying new things and learning from great authors like yourself! My goal recently is to learn how to make the perfect loaf of crusty rustic bread in a Dutch Oven.
