Alexis Gaines

My name is Alexis Gaines and I am 36 years old and I am from the community of North Avondale, born and raised. I'm choosing my story to share with the community and others to inspire the youth in the next generation.

Here in this image, you have my daughter. De’Lexiana Arrington. You have my son, Brandon Taylor, and you have me cuddling them in a photo showing love. We had welcomed him into our family not even eight months ago in this photo.
