Alexander Von Giannini's life began on June 6th, 1958, in Northamptonshire, England, where he was fortunate enough to be born to a loving English mother and an Italian father, whose profession with the European Commission would go on to shape the trajectory of Alexander's education and upbringing.
As a result of his father's occupation, Alexander was educated in not one, not two, but a total of thirteen different schools, scattered across England and Luxembourg, due to the family's frequent relocations.
