About

Hello! I’m Alexandra, the creative artist behind Valley Girl Soldier. 

I hold a BA in Studio Art from UC Riverside and completed Continuing Education in Surface Design at FIT in New York City. I have over 13 years of combined experience working in-house as an art director and surface pattern designer. I’ve worked for companies including Ruggable, Macy’s, and Sanctuary and designed licensed brands for The Pioneer Woman, Emeril Lagasse, and Kroger Co.

I create unique prints for kids, babies and home decor from my sunny SoCal bungalow. Most days you can find me in the backyard working in my studio, planting in my rambling garden or playing in the “mud kitchen” with my family. I love transforming drawings, block prints and paintings into modern rustic patterns that feel at home anywhere.
