Hi there! I’m Alex—a health, parenting, and lifestyle writer.

As a Virginia native, there are three things I know for sure: the weather can go through all four seasons in a single day, DC is the closest you’ll get to “big city living,” and Dirty Dancing was actually filmed here and not in New York. (You know, the important stuff.)
I also know that regardless of location, we can always connect through writing—and I’ve done quite a bit of that. As a writer, I cover a variety of health, parenting, fitness, nutrition, and lifestyle topics.
My byline frequently appears on Parents.com, and has also been featured on Fortune Well, BuzzFeed, TODAY.com, PS, Motherly, Elite Daily, Scary Mommy, and more.
A little more about me? I’m a wife to a pretty amazing guy, a mom of three gorgeous (yet chaotic) little girls, and a big-time cuddler to a rescue kitty named Rav (short for Ravenous, because she is).
Anyway, feel free to dive into my published articles, check out my blog, or stalk my social media!
And, of course, feel free to email me at avance094@gmail.com.
Lastly, in the words of the legendary Veronica Corningstone (anyone else love the Anchorman movies?), “Thanks for stopping by, Internet.” (I may have tweaked it a bit, but you get it.)
