Alexa Loo is a Chinese Canadian actor from Vancouver, Canada. Even at a young age, Alexa was immediately drawn to the arts. As a result, her parents enrolled her into a fine arts elementary school where she excelled in art, dance, and theatre. At the age of 13 Alexa was accepted into a professional ballet training program but she declined this opportunity in order to pursue an acting career. That same year Alexa successfully booked her first audition which was for the reoccurring role of Phan Hu on the critically acclaimed series Rogue. She then went on to appear in DC's Legends of Tomorrow, and Disney Channel's Gabby Duran and the Unsittables. Then at the age of 15, Alexa was cast as series regular Denise for the TBS series Chad. She was absolutely thrilled to have the opportunity to work alongside the talented Nasim Pedrad. Alexa is also extremely proud of her Asian heritage and she hopes that one day soon we will see more diversity and Asian representation in film and television. In her spare time, Alexa continues to train and compete in many different disciplines of dance. She also enjoys creative writing, travelling, and painting.
A woman inherits a pawnshop where you can sell your regrets, and then embarks on a magical journey when a charming young physicist wanders into the shop, in this dreamlike and enchanting fantasy novel. On a backstreet in Tokyo lies a pawnshop, but not everyone can find it. Most will see a cozy ramen restaurant. And only the chosen ones—those who are lost—will find a place to pawn their life choices and deepest regrets. Hana Ishikawa wakes on her first morning as the pawnshop’s new owner to find it ransacked, the shop’s most precious acquisition stolen, and her father missing. And then into the shop stumbles a charming stranger, quite unlike its other customers, for he offers help instead of seeking it. Together, they must journey through a mystical world to find Hana’s father and the stolen choice—by way of rain puddles, rides on paper cranes, the bridge between midnight and morning, and a night market in the clouds. But as they get closer to the truth, Hana must reveal a secret of her own—and risk making a choice that she will never be able to take back.
