STYLED BY

ABOUT

From her poetry to her fashion, leveraging her communities, which are intersectionally marginalized as queer WOC, is her ultimate motivator. It has served as the catalyst in her life and inspired her to found Morena Mia, a BIPOC fashion retailer, URBAN VQRA, an eclectic clothing label inspired by BIPOC subcultures, co-found Ella Puede, a PR and Marketing Firm and Network for BIPOC women, and author Mujer De Color(es), a poetry and portrait collection highlighting her experience as a brown queer woman.

Beyond her creativity, she is a leader and spokesperson for her community, often using her online platforms, fashion, and poetry to raise awareness around LGBTQ+ rights, women's reproductive rights, immigration legislation, and racism. When Aleja collaborates with others, whether to creative direct, style, or design, she is unapologetically bold. Always highlighting creators and designers from her community. She aspires to showcase the talent that is born in hoods, barrios, and ranchos.

REPRESENTATION MATTERS
