Alyssa hails from Sacramento, California. As a 2017 graduate from Westmont College, she received her B.A. in studio art while also competing in track and field and cross country throughout Santa Barbara and along the California coast. She deeply appreciates the academic rigor and close-knit community that her small liberal arts college provided her, which is why Alyssa is excited to be a part of Hollins University. Outside of her work at Hollins, she is a visual artist and a skilled painter. In her spare time, she enjoys spending time with her friends, exploring new cities, hiking around the Blue Ridge Mountains, and eating as much deep-dish pizza she can find! She is eager to share her newfound love of the Roanoke area with future Hollins students.
