Alexa, born and raised in Brooklyn, New York to parents of Puerto Rican descent began at a very early age to demonstrate the extraordinary talent that she captured from both her mother and father.
This arrestingly vivacious singing, dancing talent began her career as a child at the age of 14, when she recorded her first single called "Stop Lying" with an independent label (from the freestyle genre). By that time she performed along side of artists such as Marc Anthony, Tito Nieves, La India and other famous artists of that time at festivals and although very young she performed at the clubs in New York accompanied by her supporting family. The agile young artist at the age of 16
returned to the stage with more force and determination. Alexa wanting to conquer the artistic
determination. Alexa wanting to conquer the artistic world of music, composed two songs called "Blow the Whistle" and "The Obsession" at the same time creating her own choreography that would soon become part of her unique style in her presentations provoking great rave amongst the ones who watched her perform.
As her career as a singer takes off Alexa is becoming one of the greatest phenomenon within the world of music. She was predestined to conquer a legion of fans with her angelic voice.
Her career, however, has always been something very serious for her. In 1997 Alexa came to form part of an all-female merengue group called "Las Chicas Del Can". She contributed all her energy, beauty and above all her velvety voice singing "Gata Sin Luna" and "Soy Tuya" leaving her tracks once more as the choreographer of the group. Traveling worldwide Alexa left her fans screaming for more. While in "Las Chicas Del Can" the stunning artist performed in Television programs such as Occurio Asi, Edicion Especial, Sabado Gigante, Despierta America, HTV as well as other widely known programs. In the short time of her being in the merengue group she got the opportunity to share stages with artist in the category of Celia Cruz, Jose Alberto "El Canario" Wilfrido Vargas and other very important artist in the Latin music industry.
Now as a former Chicas del Can, Alexa, has prepared to seize the reins of her own destiny, and to demonstrate her artistic powers as a soloist in the Latin market. Revealing even more her gift as a composer, she is introducing a totally new unique style, incorporating the sounds and rhythms of R&B and Hip Hop in her music with the collaboration of hit making producers Winston De Jesus ("El Tiburon-and other hits for Proyecto Uno"), Cherito Jimenez (The New York Band-Wilfrido Vargas) and William Duval (writer of "Mi Primer Amor" for Kevin Ceballo) so with her refreshing personality Alexa could be the new option for those who are tired of the monotony and for those who love the good music in the streets, clubs and radio.
