MY STORY
Aleja, a Bilingual Communications Specialist, across various mediums, is a published poet, a PR and Marketing professional, a Media Correspondant, and a fashion entrepreneur with over 15 years of experience.
She is also a first- gen Queer Chicana based and raised in Riverside, CA. As eldest daughter of Mexican-migrant parents, she developed an incredible work ethic and a strong sense of respect for her culture from their model behavior.
From her poetry to her clothing brand, her mission is to become a voice of positive change for her communities. It has served as the catalyst in her life and inspired her to found Morena Mia, a Latina Lifestyle and Fashion Brand, launch Eclectix, a PR Agency and Network for Latine content creators, and author Mujer De Color(es), a poetry collection inspired by her upbringing.
Beyond her creativity, she is a leader and spokesperson for her community, often using her online platforms to raise awareness around LGBTQ+ rights, women's reproductive rights, immigration legislation, and education activism.
