At eighteen Alex moved to San-Francisco so that he could concentrate on his Starfleet application, he sent his application to Starfleet academy later that year, he was accepted first time, on a night out to celebrate his acceptance he meet Hayley Sales and they soon started dating.

During his second year at the Academy Hayley asked him to leave Starfleet, but Alex refused as he wanted to make a difference and serve the Federation like his parents had, so Hayley left him claiming she didn’t want to be another Starfleet widow, to get over the loss of the love of his life he buried himself in his course work and started to take expand his skill set by attending extra courses, with the help of Molly he managed to get back to his normal self. In his third year at the Academy his world was rocked again this time by the death of his father, the USS Wrathchild on which his father was lost with all hands, Starfleet was never able to explain what happened to the ship. Alex spiralled into a deep depression, he started to skip lectures and his course work suffered badly he was on the verge of being kicked out of the Academy altogether, he didn’t get back on track until Molly called his mum who was serving on the USS Clairvoyant to see if she could pay him a visit, as she feels that she maybe the only one to be able to reach. Alex was shocked to see his mum, she sat him down and told him that this wasn’t what his father would have wanted, he would have want Alex to be out there making a difference.
