Alexandra Lifshin
TEACHES: Fundamentals of Celebrancy
Alexandra Lifshin is a certified Life Cycle Celebrant® with a certification in Weddings. Her love of writing, research, ritual, and public speaking started in high school: she was a nationally ranked debater and orator. Alexandra graduated with honors from Saint Louis University in 2006. She holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in English Literature. Much of her education dealt with religion, spirituality, and psychology (all including healthy doses of Joseph Campbell and Carl Jung). She served as discussion group leader for the New York City Atheists from 2009 through 2011. When friends asked her to perform their wedding ceremony in 2010, she became interested in becoming a wedding Officiant. She has been CF&I's official Librarian since 2014. Alexandra is excited to bring her experience, educational background, love of learning, and abiding enthusiasm for everyday rituals and Celebrancy to her teaching practice.
