Co-founder at GrasshoppHer (a career development service for women) headquartered in Austin, Texas. Under the GrasshoppHer umbrella is Be Fearless Summit, a reinvented college fair that has premiered at universities like UC Berkeley, Drexel and UCONN.
CEO & founder of Life Unfiltered with Alexa and former host of Fearless Everyday on Radio Disney with Alexa Curtis.
Born and raised in small town Mansfield, Connecticut, Alexa Curtis knew she was different. She didn’t fit into the “normal social mold.” When she entered middle school, all the bullying she endured led her to needing an outlet to escape. In 2011, at just 12 years old, she started a fashion blog; A Life in the Fashion Lane. It became a platform for her to express her feelings around everything relating to teens, body image and mental health. As Curtis evolved as a person, her blog naturally shifted from fashion to discussing sensitive topics that teens and young adults face every day. A Life in the Fashion Lane was changed to Life Unfiltered with Alexa Curtis and became a lifestyle website and podcast for teens & parents discussing topics such as social media and mental health. Not only did Curtis turn her little fashion blog into a full-time lifestyle platform for teens, through cold-pitching, she managed to get sponsored by brands like British Airways, T-Mobile, Lands' End and more.
