Alina grew up in Horton Heath (near Fair Oak) and attended Fair Oak School. When she was 16, Alina attended Laine Theatre Arts School in Epsom, and was a flat-mate of Victoria Beckham. After a dancing job on a cruise ship, Alina joined the BBC via BBC Talent, working initially for Radio Solent, before joining South Today as their main weather presenter in 2001.
