She is 5 feet 3 inches tall, which is advantageous for surfing because it helps her keep her balance on the board as she has a low center of gravity.

Alessa made her professional surfing debut at the 2009 Women's Championship Tour. In 2011, she placed third at the Oakley ASP World Junior Tour.

In 2016, she placed fifth at the Rip Curl Women's Pro Bells Beach during the Women's Championship Tour. However, in 2019, she won the Sydney Women's Pro at Manly beach in Australia.

Alessa once stated in a video for Billabong that how she grew up taught her humility and has made her appreciate all the good things that have come her way.

Her upbringing was difficult because her parents worked tirelessly to support their family. However, having grown up in the West side, she is proud of her home and would do anything to represent her people.

The professional surfer, who calls surfing her first love, is living her dream, and while talking about her motivations, Alessa said:

"My motivation in life is to be happy, and I feel that getting to surf for a living and travel the world has enabled me to live an incredibly well-balanced life and the lifestyle I get to live is like no other."

At the time, her primary goal was to be one of the top five surfers on tour. She also wanted to become a world champion and the first-ever world champ from Makaha, Hawaii.
