Alexandra is also my MVP for the Short North neighborhood in that she saved the Goodale Park Music Series and plans many other community events. Kudos AK!

Alex loves Karma To Burn, which is all I need to know. Congrats Alex, and thank you for championing so many important events in this town.

So excited to see Alex at the top of this list. She’s a fantastic writer, a (passionate) mover and shaker, and one hell of a pastry chef, to boot.
