Born in Paris, Alexandra spent the majority of her childhood in South-East Asia, moving between Singapore, Thailand, and Malaysia. Drawn to an international environment, she decided to continue her studies at McGill. During her high school years in France, she trained professionally as a high-level rowing athlete and achieved a second national ranking.

Shifting her focus toward academics, she was always fascinated by the influence of investors on companies' decisions and developed a passion for finance due to its sports-like team environment, competitiveness, and dynamic nature. Outside of school, Alexandra can be found at the gym, trying new restaurants, or planning her next trips.
