Alexis grew up with a love for animals and dreamed of becoming a veterinarian to help them. At the time, she didn’t realize what saving animals could really mean in everyone’s daily lives.
After watching the documentary “Earthlings”, her life completely changed in so many ways. It led to a vegan lifestyle, switching from biology to art major 3 years in, and becoming the president of Knights for Animal Rights (KAR)- a student organization for animal rights advocacy.
Working with PETAxSOS and DefaultVeg, Alexis helped lead KAR through the pandemic to host a variety of protests, outreach events, and community-building events - with the goal of bringing animal rights to the forefront of people’s minds and ending speciesism.
Now in her graduating semester at UCF, she considers herself an “art-ivist” (artist + activist) and uses art to advocate for animal rights, human rights, and the environment. This year, she opened her small business Alexis Kayla Creations, LLC. You can visit her website to find her activism artwork, previous interviews, and upcoming events.
