The plant appears to be healthy but the edges of the leaves are curling up. Can you tell me why? This is a houseplant.

Alocasia’s love heat, humidity and high light. Without plenty of each, you will see leaf edge burn. This article should help: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/houseplants/alocasia-plant/growing-african-mask-plant.htm ^[1]

Alocasia is a “houseplant,” it’s true, but it is not an easy one, as the article says. Nor is it a beginner’s plant. If you’re interested in getting into houseplants, some easier plants with interesting foliage are sanseveria, aglaonema, and dieffenbachia. After you’ve had some success with more adaptable plants, give the alocasia another try.
