Allow me to reintroduce myself!

Hi everyone! My name is Alena, I use she/her pronouns, I am 27 years old, and I am from Tucson, Arizona. I am born and raised in Tucson, Az. I lived in Baltimore, Md for 2 years while I was getting my Masters of Science in Public Health with a focus in Population, Family, and Reproductive Health. During my time at Johns Hopkins I was a Planned Parenthood Intern where I taught s*x education to high school students and provided resources. I also trained as a doula and assisted in 5 births. I am passionate about maternal and infant health, adolescent health and health education. Go follow my doula page! Alena Pappas

I am currently a full time teacher at a trade school for high school students where I teach a foundational healthcare class. But let’s get back to business! I originally started making soaps as gifts for friends and family members. I had a couple people tell me that I should start selling them so I did! If you scroll allllll the way down my posts you’ll see some pictures! I still make soaps but not as often. I then tried getting into candle making but I sucked! Shoutout to the people who are good at making candles because it’s so hard lol! Then I got into resin! I also knit here and there and took this up when I was in middle school I believe. I stopped doing it but started up again a couple years ago. Here we almost 7 years later!

I love supporting and uplifting other small businesses so you’ll see me constantly reposting onto my story! Thank you all for your continued love and support, I wouldn’t be where I am without you all. Check me out in person at vendor markets! ❤️
