Survivor: Kaôh Rōng
Alecia started the game on the To Tang tribe. Due to her small stature she was instantly labeled an outsider, with many of her tribemates questioning why she was on the Brawn tribe. Kyle Jason and Scot Pollard dubbed her "blondie" and began talking about her behind her back. Although Alecia was slated to be the first person voted out, after Darnell Hamilton struggled at the Immunity Challenge, the tribe considered keeping Alecia over Darnell. At Tribal Council Alecia convinced her tribe that she could do much better in future challenges and that she could still reach her full potential. Her lobbying, along with Darnell's failure in the challenge, resulted in the tribe splitting the vote 3-3 between Alecia and Darnell. In the revote Darnell was voted out, sparing Alecia.

After the close call at the last Tribal Council, Alecia was determined to prove herself. While everybody else was relaxing in the shelter, she spent five hours lighting the tribes fire. Despite this her tribe still considered her the weakest link. After losing the next Immunity Challenge Alecia's fate seemed set in stone. However Jennifer Lanzetti was contemplating starting a women's alliance with Alecia and Cydney Gillon. Alecia, seeing a weakness in the four person alliance, and Cydney, having more loyalty to the men than the women, exposed Jenny's plans. At Tribal Council, Jenny further dug her own grave by saying the vote was up in the air. This caused her tribe (minus Scot) to turn against her and vote Jenny out over Alecia.

Back at camp, Alecia had resumed an ongoing search for the Hidden Immunity Idol. While Cydney was with her, the two found the locked box the idol was located in. However, Cydney went back to camp and alerted Jason and Scot about the situation. The two came and began searching for the key themselves, which they all found in a tree top. After the key was taken away right in front of her, Alecia was once again vulnerable.

There were now no places left for Alecia to hide and she had to rely on immunity to stay alive. Luckily, after a close fought battle, To Tang managed to win their first Immunity Challenge. At the next Reward Challenge Alecia further ostracized herself by not digging for the puzzle bags but instead kicking at the sand and encouraging her tribemates. This lead to To Tang losing the challenge. Back at camp, Scot became infuriated at Alecia for not trying her best in the challenge and telling Alecia that the only thing she was good at was being a cheerleader. Alecia, tired of being bullied by Jason and Scot, fought back and held her own against the two men. After losing the next challenge Jason asked Jeff Probst if they could hold Tribal Council right after the challenge because Alecia was going home no matter what. Alecia disagreed, causing the tribe to go back to camp before visiting Tribal Council. At Tribal Council, Jeff pointed out that she wasn't on the brawn tribe because of her physical strength, but because of her mental toughness and for not taking anybody's insults. Jason and Scot continued to degrade her, saying she was bringing it upon herself and that they were trying to help her be better. Before voting, Jeff himself admitted that although he knows she's going, he's still rooting for her anyways. Once the votes were read Alecia was finally voted out in a 3-1 vote, finishing in 14th. As she was leaving, she wished Cydney good luck.
