Matty Alexander

Howdy! I’m Matty. I graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2021 with a degree in Media and Journalism. I look forward to entering this program to enhance and sharpen my research, storytelling, and interpersonal skills. I enjoy theater and musicals, trivia, playing video games, suits, and fashion, watching baseball, and reading the news.
