Alexandra was raised in Germany while being born with Greek roots. When she was 19 years old she was struck with a severe medical condition, wherein her left vocal cord was paralyzed, and this compromised her ability to sing. This was despairing for young Alexandra who had planned to start her singing studies that year itself. While in order to heal she had to stop straining her vocal cord, in simpler terms she stopped talking for 1.5 years.
Later on, she moved to London and commenced her singing studies in classical repertoire, from where her remarkable journey in the world of classical music surpassed musical boundaries.
