Alexandra Miller

I have been working as a forensic social worker with the Office of the Alternate Defense Counsel (ADC) since 2018, driven by a longstanding passion for criminal defense. During my internship at the Jefferson County Public Defender’s Office from 2016 to 2017, I gained valuable experience in the juvenile division, which further fueled my dedication to this work. My areas of expertise and interest include race relations and systemic inequalities, gender and sexuality, intersectionality, human trafficking, sociological impacts, sociopathology, psychopathology, domestic violence, severe childhood abuse and trauma, gang involvement, and prison reform. Since joining the ADC, I have developed a strong preference for working on cases involving juveniles and adults, particularly those related to murder, gang involvement, and individuals with extensive histories of childhood trauma. My focus remains on advocating for justice and reform, especially for those whose lives have been shaped by complex social and psychological challenges.
