At Harvard, Alex was actively engaged in community work with children and served as the President of the school's chapter of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, amongst other organizations. 

Alex’s passion extends beyond dentistry into community engagement, mainly working with underserved populations. She has dedicated her postdoctoral career to becoming a National Health Service Corps Scholar, demonstrating her commitment to providing quality healthcare to those in need. 

One of Alex's greatest strengths is her broad range of experiences, which have equipped her with an ornate perspective on the dental profession. She honed her practical skills as a dental and surgical assistant in private and community clinics, gaining hands-on experience that further enriched her understanding of the dental field. The students Alex has coached have been accepted to Boston University School of Dental Medicine, Penn Dental Medicine, the NYU College of Dentistry, the University of Michigan School of Dentistry, and UCLA School of Dentistry.
