Alexus danced competitively for seven years with the Leading Edge Dance Company. She attended many dance conventions over the years, such as, Jump, The Streetz, Celebrity, Tremaine, and summer intensives with Dallas Black Dance Theater to further her growth.

Alexus received her BFA with a focus in performance and choreography from Texas State University.

Most recently, Alexus’ choreography was selected to be performed in the American College Dance Association Gala in 2022 and 2023. Alexus intends to dance professionally as long as her body allows. She will be performing with Blue Lapis Light this fall in their new work “Belonging II”. Alexus has found a deep love for teaching and choreography. She can not wait to share all she has learned with the PAD students!!!
