Biography

Alexandra's journey in the entertainment industry began with a serendipitous discovery in a children's magazine, which led to her being cast alongside Joe Penney in the TV movie "The Disappearance of Vonnie". This marked the start of her television career, followed by several TV movies and eventually, she landed the role of Katherine Corrigan in the MGM television series "Poltergeist: The Legacy". Her breakthrough in the film industry came with the release of her first major motion picture, "Marine Life", which earned her the prestigious Leo Award for Actress in a Dramatic Lead.

However, at the tender age of 16, Alexandra made the decision to take a hiatus from the industry, focusing instead on her education and experiencing a normal teenage life. This period of time allowed her to recharge and prioritize her studies. Today, Alexandra resides in British Columbia with her mother, stepfather, sister Keely, and beloved dog Snickers.

As a full-time university student, Alexandra is now eager to return to her acting career, and we can expect great things from this talented individual in the years to come.
