Alina Manaila is 27 years old. Born in Romania and raised in the south of Spain (Almeria) Alina moved to the UK after turning 19. Living down south (London) for few months then moving to Leeds, Alina has been here ever since.

Alina started working as a care assistant when she arrived in the UK and has worked her way up through the sector from there. She is currently working as a Registered Estate Manager, for a retirement living development.

Alina enjoys helping people maintain their independence and live their best retirement life. She has always been an advocate for others, since being little Alina’s mum always thought she would end up being a lawyer, because, her mother says, she defends everyone.
