Chapter One
Cleveland,
Ohio

The Early Years.

Growing up in Cleveland wasn't easy. Overweight, deeply insecure, navigating a home shaped by addiction and loss. Alaias had every reason to shrink. She didn't.

One of few Black girls in a predominantly white school
Identity, belonging, and self-worth were daily struggles.
Over 200 lbs as a teenager
Body image challenges and a persistent sense of not fitting in.
Family shaped by substance abuse
Parents met in recovery. Lost two uncles to overdose. Brother followed the same path during adolescence.
Channeled the chaos into discipline
The foundation was forming, even when it didn't feel like it.

After college, she joined EA Sports, where she created and led Field the Future, a brand marketing program that impacted more than 1,000 students annually and provided over $100,000 in scholarships for students pursuing STEM degrees.
