Getting to know Alexandra

Time to get more acquainted with this exotic model, and self-proclaimed adventurous nerd, with a passion for engineering and real estate…

Hello, Alee, tell us a bit about yourself.
My name is Alexandra but I go by Alee in the modelling world. Born and raised in Northeast Ohio, I’ve been in the industry about 14 years and modelling internationally for close to five years now. I have kind of an exotic background – my mum is white and Iberian, my dad is Cherokee, Asian and Italian, so I get the “What are you?” question a lot.

Nice. And nice photo shoot and location.
Yeah, I planned a trip to Louisville, Kentucky to shoot content for different projects, and we chose to shoot across the border in Indiana at a place called Falls of The Ohio. It has so many great locations that look just like the beach which is why we chose it.

You look great. When do you feel sexy?
Thanks. I want to say all the time but that’s definitely not the case. Probably when I’m doing photo shoots. Once the set is together, I’ve got my hair and make-up done, my lingerie is on and the music is going… I really get into the mood. Being a lingerie and bikini model you definitely have to know how to turn up the heat in front of the camera.

What is your best asset?
I have to say my booty. I normally do about one-hundred squats during a full-body workout, so it’s 100% real.

What would people be most surprised to know about you?
I went to college for drafting and engineering. I took Civil, Mechanical & Electrical Engineering in college, as well as CAD (Computer Aided Design) after taking three years of drafting and one year of mechanisms in high-school.

What’s one thing men should always know about women?
If we look mad, feed us. Half the time we’re hungry anyway.

What do you look for in a man?
I’m not someone who likes someone because they look good. I go for hardworking guys who are incredibly intelligent. The guy that can teach me about a 401(k) or the benefits of having a Roth over a normal IRA… that’s my guy.

Describe your ideal date.
I’m more of a skip-date-night-and-we- can-chill-at-home-with-whatever-we- find-good-on-TV type of girl.

What can we get you at the bar?
Mojito, sangria, tequila and, of course, bar food.

What is your motto in life?
“You just gotta keep livin’ man. L.I.V.I.N.” – David Wooderson.

Where would you like to be in five years?
I’ve been working on getting my real estate license and just finished the course, so I’m hoping to be able to step back from modelling full-time to pursue other opportunities. Maybe also finish the last two years of my degree. ■
