Student Success Spotlight: Alexandra Markevics, New Rochelle Resident & 2024 Graduate

Alexandra Markevics, a proud New Rochelle resident and 2024 graduate of WSMDA’s Medical Assistant Program, made a bold move to change careers after the age of 50. She enrolled using federal financial aid, balancing school with her job, and found the support she needed through WSMDA’s hands-on training and dedicated faculty.

Drawn to WSMDA’s small class sizes and practical approach, Alexandra completed her program and was placed at a cardiology practice in White Plains within just 30 days of finishing her internship thanks to our active Placement Department.

Alexandra shared:

“It was challenging going back to school after 50 and working at the same time, but WSMDA made the experience seamless. It’s never too late to turn your dreams into reality, never give up.”

Her story is a powerful example of how WSMDA empowers New Rochelle residents and adult learners to launch meaningful healthcare careers—no matter their age or background.
