Following a diving accident in 1995, Alexandra first sailed on a day out while rehabbing in Miami. However she didn’t start taking the sport seriously until studying at Imperial College, London, 10 years later. Alexandra started Sailing with Niki Birrell in November 2007 but had earlier spent eight months training to helm in the new SKUD class while studying. She says qualifying for Beijing 2008 is her greatest sporting achievement.

At London 2012, Alexandra and Niki took bronze in the SKUD 18, although flat conditions on the last day of racing denied them of the opportunity to race for silver.
