Alexa Rockwell is a social media editor and writer. She’s written articles and ran social media accounts for anything from her hometown dance studio and college comedy club to start-up companies and major television networks. She loves writing in all forms from personal essays to ghostwriting her friend's Instagram captions. Growing up, most of her family worked for a New England chain of grocery stores so food was — and is — always top of mind.
