My name is Alexandra (Alex) Bogdan and I'm in my second year at San Jose State University. I will graduate in 2014 with a degree in Public Relations and a minor in Communications. My passion for writing started during my senior year of high school when I wrote for the school newspaper, but my greatest passion has always been sports. Growing up in a household with an older brother and father who are diehard 49er Faithfuls and overall sports fanatics, I truly found a love for sports, football in particular. I grew up in the Bay Area, which is surrounded by sports teams, and have been a huge Giants, Niners and Bears fan since I can remember. It's as if I were born already rooting for these teams, given no choice from my upbringing. At the age of five, I began to play soccer and as I got older, I competed in basketball and softball as well. The sport I stuck with my entire life was soccer, playing competitively until I graduated high school.
