Alexandra Phelps

CU Boulder '27

At the University of Colorado Boulder, Alexandra Phelps is a contributing writer as well as a member of the Social Media Team for her Her Campus Chapter.

Phelps pursues a double major in English literature and art history, while balancing minors in economics and business. She could tell you all about how she tries to use these accomplishments to market herself through her LinkedIn profile, but truth be told, she studies a wide range of subjects because she loves to learn. She’s always ready to share a new fun fact she has in her pocket.

She’s constantly consuming information, from her classes, to the music she listens to, or from the people around her. It’s something she loves immensely, and newly found information is often the driving force for her article inspiration. A collection of reviews, profiles, and advice, Phelps’s articles span a wide range of topics. However, her favorite articles stem from her interest in music, appearing as album reviews or her monthly installment of delving into her listening habits.

In her free time, she enjoys watching movies and creating art. She loves reduction printing, acrylic painting, and drawing; recently she’s been experimenting with watercolors. Choosing an English major stemmed from her love of reading, another hobby she enjoys. Ann Patchett and Barbara Kingsolver are two stand out authors, who she believes brilliantly capture ranges of humanity.
