A city of civic energy on the Potomac's western shore.
Located on the western bank of the Potomac River just south of Washington, D.C., Alexandria is rich in historic and civic significance. During her residence here, Kristin Stadum wove herself into the fabric of the capital region's community life — participating in regional MS Walks, raising funds and awareness for causes close to her heart.
The city served as her anchor for public service, book-access initiatives, and literary circles in the wider capital region. Alexandria's blend of colonial history, vibrant neighborhoods, and proximity to the seat of American government made it the ideal base for Kristin's Washington-area chapter.
From charity fundraising to regional events and local social networks, Alexandria represents a defining period of community action in the Stadum family story.
