Born and raised with a love for sports, movement, and helping others, Alexa is currently completing her Bachelor of Medical Sciences at Brock University and has quickly found her place in sports medicine and rehabilitation.
Alexa has been heavily involved with Brock’s Men’s Varsity Basketball team as a Student Trainer and Return-to-Play Coach, working closely with athletes throughout their rehab journeys, from strength testing to safely guiding them back into competition. She also serves as a Mental Health Champion within the program, because to Alexa, recovery is about more than just muscles and movement.
Outside the court, Alexa has gained valuable experience as a medical assistant at a community family clinic, assisting with patient care, monitoring vital signs, and supporting minor procedures. She has also shadowed physiotherapists at Hotel Dieu Shaver, provided sideline support and athletic taping for the Ontario Women’s Intercollegiate Football Association, and worked at the Canada Summer Games, helping athletes and staff behind the scenes.
When she’s not in the clinic, courtside, or perfecting the art of athletic taping, you’ll probably find Alexa watching basketball, staying active, or continuing to learn everything she can about sports performance and rehabilitation. Alexa brings energy, compassion, and a team-first mentality to every athlete and client she works with.
Her goal? To make rehab feel less intimidating and a little more empowering.
