What Lights Me Up

From front rows at concerts to chess tournaments — here's the full, unfiltered version of me.

💖 Mega-Fan

Big Time Rush & The Family They Built

Philosophy: "It's the only life you got, so you gotta live it big time."

From the front section in Las Vegas to The Nostalgia Con in Houston — I've lived these moments fully. Met the guys twice and have a personal advice video from James Maslow. They (and Stephen!) are genuinely the kindest people on earth.

Chess & Strategic Thinking

I love the strategic depth of chess — it mirrors my approach to programming: anticipating moves, calculating risks, and maintaining a solid defense while executing a winning innovation.

Participated in two chess tournaments against other school teams. My dad is a way better player than me, but I guess the passion lies in our genes! 😄

💃

Hip-Hop Dance

Movement is my reset button. I bring high energy to the dance floor and my dev environment alike. Dance is where I process, release, and come back stronger.

High energy on the floor, high energy in the code editor.
🎤

Songwriting & Rap

I deconstruct rap lyrics to study linguistic structure — the same analytical brain that loves math finds patterns in rhyme schemes, rhythmic timing, and wordplay. I perform my own tracks to explore rhythm and poetry.

🔢

Mathematics & Logic

I genuinely love math! The clarity of logic and the beauty of a solved equation fuel my technical work. There's something almost poetic about the way math makes order from complexity.

🧪

Science & Soul Blog

Research-driven articles on compounds like Linalool and Melatonin. Certified in Linguistic Reprogramming (2022, Lima, Peru) — using cognitive rewiring to accelerate learning and unlock potential.

✈️

Travel & Self-Care

Flights to new cities, beach days, or anything that keeps me at peace. Self-care isn't selfish — it's strategic. I return from every trip more creative and more grounded.

"I'm not going to wait for another life to feel alive!"
Personal World

The Full Alessa

Founder. Developer. Dancer. Chess player. Disney Alumni. Vegan baker. Mega-fan.
Here's where all the pieces come together. 💖

🌱

Vegan & Wellness

100% Vegan for 8+ years (seasonally Ovo-Vegetarian). Food is philosophy. I cook, I bake, I nourish intentionally.

🧁

Baker Extraordinaire

"Damn good" fudge brownies and cakes — my favorite is red velvet. Baking is chemistry, and I love chemistry.

🍵

Tea & Rituals

In love with lavender tea, matcha, and blackberries. My morning ritual is sacred. Built with love, passion, and lavender tea. ☕

😂

Humor & Joy

I love comedy. I'm very easy to laugh — finding the humor in life is my ultimate wellness hack. Joy is a practice.

🐾

Proud Cat Mom

Because every high-achieving dev needs a purring coworker who judges your code and knocks things off your desk.

🎬

Disney Alumni

Managed high-capacity mechanical systems under strict Disney protocols. Magic is just engineering with extra sparkle.
