About Nesta

Alexandra works as an analyst for the healthy life mission, helping to deliver the mission through research and analysis.

Before Nesta, Alexandra served as a public health analyst for Lambeth council, where she worked across a variety of areas including sexual health and substance misuse services. Prior to this, she was an analyst for the Health Foundation, looking at the wider determinants of health, in particular examining the effect of environmental and economic factors on health outcomes.

Alexandra holds a BSc for Mathematics at the University of Bath, where she undertook a placement year at the Office for Students as a researcher adding insight into apprenticeships.
