Our Editor-In-Chief Alexis George was born and raised in Miami, FL. She found a passion for writing early on and became a published author at the young age of eight. From there she knew she wanted to turn her passion into a career.
That led her to attend the University of Central Florida where she earned a bachelor’s degree in Journalism and a minor in Business. There was just something about interviewing people from all different walks of life and turning their stories into written words that excited her. She specifically wanted to focus on telling the stories of black men, which is what inspired her to found The Soul Within.
George is currently pursuing a master’s degree in New Media Journalism at Full Sail University to continue to perfect her craft. She lives by the Albert Einstein quote: “Once you stop learning, you start dying.”
