As a young college student, she traveled around the United States as a member of UTRGV’s Mariachi Aztlan, opening up concerts for several professional mariachi artists including a performance at Chicago’s Millennium Park in front of 21,000 people. While touring with Aztlan, Alexa also had the opportunity to coach young mariachi musicians in different workshops that promote mariachi music education.
