Ever since she was young, Alexandra Holland has known she wanted to someday be an attorney. Since childhood, she has enjoyed helping others who were either unable to speak for themselves or who were overpowered by louder voices and opinions. Her personable demeanor and desire to meet people on every level directly influence her approach to representing clients.
Her experience as a well-traveled woman of multi-cultural descent and growing up with a foreign exchange student has enriched her background and approach as a lawyer. Additionally, her parents, both influenced by the Army in some fashion, have been invaluable to providing her a well-rounded perspective, shaping her character and broadening her horizons.
Alexandra’s legal background includes internships at the Federal Home Loan Bank and U.S. Steel in Pittsburgh, PA, and working at a law firm in Greensboro preparing trial documents and interviewing potential clients. Before her education at University of Pittsburgh School of Law, she attended Virginia Tech for her undergraduate degree and also spent a summer shadowing ADA Lester in the District Attorney’s office of Forsyth County in Winston-Salem.
Her love for travel has led her to visit over 20 countries so far, including St. Lucia, Belize, and Spain. She spends her free time hanging out with family and friends, attending Panthers games, reading, cooking, and taking her dog on long walks.
