About me!

Howdy! My name is Alyssa Walthers, and I am an aspiring graphic design and social media specialist. In my free time, I enjoy spending time outdoors, reading, and playing with my dogs Whiskey and Piper. One of my life goals is to visit every National Park in the US!

​

While I currently reside in Texas, I am open to relocation anywhere in the US and abroad.
