Bex Young spent the first 13 years of her life in the United Kingdom before moving to Florida to begin her life as a new and proud American. She became addicted to the internet when she discovered that both Geocities and Angelfire were great hosts for websites featuring her poetry. Although she went to Florida State University, and later, George Washington University for political management, Bex has also maintained her youthful love of the world wide web. She took classes on marketing, PR, and new media in an effort to blend together technology, internet, and her love of social advocacy. She is now the director of digital engagement for Teach For America, where she handles all things social media and takes a leading role in designing and executing the organization’s national social media strategy. Her hobbies include: working out, social media, dancing, and office pranks.
