Alexandra Z. Forseth
Alexandra Z. Forseth graduated from Rice University with a degree in chemical & biomolecular engineering. She went on to work for ExxonMobil in a variety of refinery operations support & strategic planning roles. On November 21, 2017, her uncle & father, both dual citizens of the United States & Venezuela, were wrongfully detained in Caracas while on a business trip. From that day forward, she was catapulted into a myriad of roles that a hostage family member must simultaneously adopt as an advocate, media specialist, legal analyst, foreign policy officer & so much more.
Through the support of organizations like Hostage US, the James W. Foley Foundation & the Richardson Center for Global Engagement, Alexandra was able to drive the multilateral effort of advocating for the release of her family members. In early 2022, she led the unification of over 20 American families with loved ones wrongfully detained abroad to form the Bring Our Families Home Campaign (BOFH). The campaign activities sparked a step change in national support for the release of American hostages & encouraged the U.S. Government to act decisively to reunite them with their families. As BOFH grew in numbers & momentum, Alexandra ultimately decided to leave ExxonMobil to focus on advocating for her family & other hostages full-time.
After years of effort, on October 1, 2022, her father & uncle were released after 1,775 days in captivity & returned to the United States. With her loved ones safe at home, Alexandra transitioned campaign leadership to other families ready to keep the ball moving to secure more releases. The following year, she was honored to give the keynote address at the 2023 Annual James W. Foley Freedom Awards with BOFH co-founder, Neda Sharghi. Since the inception of BOFH, almost all of the original group represented by the campaign has been reunited with their families. Though an incredible amount of progress was made, there is still more work to be done & many innocent American hostages still in need of support. Alexandra continues to stay connected to efforts in this space & plans on using her experiences to be of service to other hostage families & their loved ones for years to come.
