Alicia Faires

She/They

Meteorologist
Participates in 5 items
Although Alicia currently works as a meteorologist for the largest test range in the US, she also has degrees in Applied Mathematics and East Asian Studies and is working towards a master's in Data Science. Alicia does love learning new costume and prop-making techniques from traditional forms like weaving, sewing, embroidery, knitting, and crochet to newer skills like 3D printing, using electronics, and crafting with foam and thermal plastics. One of these days, she'll actually start learning to create her own more complex 3D models. Alicia also goes by Leanna Cosplay on Facebook, Twitch, Instagram, and TikTok, though there's not much content right now due to having way too many hobbies.
