Graduate Recognition

Mackenzie Alexander (she/her)

You can call me Mackenzie

Mackenzie is passionate about accompanying youth and their families on their spiritual journeys and giving youth an inclusive and welcoming space to wonder. She graduated from United Lutheran Seminary with a Master’s in Public Leadership, where she was also able to take courses with Temple University’s Graduate School of Social Work during her studies. Her experience working in the education system (NJ & Philly) and living abroad in South Africa led her to seminary and eventually Youth Ministry.

Happiest outside, Mackenzie loves hiking and reading in her hammock. She resides in Fishtown, Philadelphia with her wife, two spoiled cats (Pickles and Luna Lou), and many plants. You can find her experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen or exploring the city in her downtime.
