A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Paige Alexander, and I’m a rising junior at Waynflete School in Portland, Maine. I have two older sisters, one of whom has special needs, and I’ve grown up helping care for her by cooking, cleaning, and supporting her daily.

I’ve always loved being in the kitchen — cooking and baking for my family and friends is one of my favorite ways to spend time. I also take pride in keeping things tidy and organized.

I’m super enthusiastic about working with kids and have been volunteering at my local elementary school for the past two years as a classroom helper for students in grades K–5. It’s something I really enjoy, and it’s taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, and creating positive connections with children.
