Rochelle Alexandra was born in Glasgow, Scotland, where she grew up, then moved to New York to live when she was eighteen. She had an early love for writing poetry, winning a national award and later had a few poems published in the USA.

She is a talented artist and photographer, with a real love for children, horse riding and travel. Her favorite jobs were in advertising agencies, working for a newspaper, a photographer's assistant and private chef. She ran her own freelance art business painting portraits, murals and abstracts.

Rochelle never set out to be a writer, but after hearing her Polish grandmother's gripping true life history during WWII, first-hand, she made a promise to her gran that she would write her story in book form one day. Sadly, her grandmother Alexa passed away two months before the novel 'In Alexa's Shoes' about her life was published, aged 92.

Currently, Rochelle Alexandra is writing the sequel to In Alexa's Shoes. 

The Amazon #1 International Bestseller - In Alexa's Shoes was a top ten finalist in the Author Academy Awards 2019, in the historical fiction category, and once again as a top ten finalist in the historical fiction category of the Author Elite Awards in 2020. In Alexa's Shoes won first place in the Author Elite Awards, 2021.
