Gina Alexandris - About Me: A wide variety of experiences have shaped me and offer me helpful insights that I bring to the role of Career Coach & Consultant. Over the years, I have had the privilege to work with thousands of individuals to support them in their professional development, at various stages, and with a number of organizations.
My beliefs and values have been shaped by my professional and academic experiences, as well as by my experience as the daughter of Greek immigrants to Canada. I live with my husband and son in Toronto.
Past “formal” roles include: Senior Director, Law Practice Program at TMU (formerly Ryerson University); and Special Advisor to the Lincoln Alexander School of Law. I have also been the Director of the Strategic Planning Unit with the Legal Services Division at the Ministry of the Attorney General; Director of the Internationally Trained Lawyers Program at the University of Toronto Faculty of Law; and Assistant Dean and Director of Career Services at Osgoode Hall Law School. Prior to that, I practised civil litigation and family law.
Lifelong learning is a core, fundamental value and passion of mine. Training and certification includes a law degree from Osgoode Hall Law School, a Masters of Education Degree in Adult Education from OISE, a Certificate of Completion for the Art and Practice of Leadership Development Program at the Harvard Kennedy School. I am also a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach (CPCC) and Associate Certified Coach (ICF) with the International Coaching Federation. I am passionate about personal and professional success and development, leadership, diversity and inclusion and developing strong relationships and networks.
