Alexandra Perkins was born and raised in Denver, Colorado, gallivanting around the Rocky Mountains on the weekends and studying dinosaur bones at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science on the weekdays. She is currently studying Anthropology at University of California, Berkeley, while working as an archivist at the Phoebe Hearst Museum of Anthropology. Alexandra still spends all her free time hiking in the Berkeley hills and exploring the Bay Area's multitude of cultural events, ever in pursuit of another beautiful vista.
