Before joining WCCB Charlotte, Alexandra was a reporter at WSBT in South Bend, Indiana. She was a morning reporter there for two years, waking up at 3am for live reports. While in South Bend, Alexandra dove into the complexities of the growing opioid epidemic from every angle. A topic she continues to be fascinated by.

Alexandra graduated with a degree in in Journalism from the University of Illinois Champaign-Ubrana.

In her free time, Alexandra loves to volunteer, workout, read…and of course–Explore the Queen City. She’ll get on the Panther’s bandwagon, but plans on staying loyal to her Chicago Cubs , Bulls & Blackhawks.
