Alejandro began his journey into the wellness field while in the DePaul acting conservatory in 2010. He was introduced to yoga in the Iyengar Tradition under the tutelage of Gabriel Halpern who he continues to learn from to this day. Alejandro underwent teacher training in 2016 through Moksha Yoga and studied Thai Massage at Blue Lotus Thai Healing with Paul Fowler shortly after.

Alejandro has been practicing massage therapy at The Soma Institute, National School of Clinical Massage Therapy where he graduated in 2014. He soon returned as a Teaching Assistant and eventually became a Core Instructor, teaching anatomy, clinical skills and techniques, special testing and treatments for various neural and musculoskeletal conditions for a number of years.

Alejandro has been the co-host of the Dream Freaks podcast and has held weekly Dream Yoga classes and workshops across the city and at weekend festivals. He is currently Vice President of the fledgling Chicago Death Doula Collective, a non profit organization dedicated to providing death doula services and death education and programming in the city of Chicago. He hosts regular Death Cafés and related events.
