She retired from international competition after 1998. A three time individual Russian national champion, she won 400 m silver medals at the IAAF World Indoor Championships and European Athletics Indoor Championships.

Alekseyeva was a double gold medallist for the Soviet Union at the 1985 Summer Universiade, taking both individual and relay 400 m titles. She competed at the 1985 IAAF World Cup that year and shared in a relay silver medal with Irina Nazarova, Mariya Pinigina and Olha Bryzhina.

Running a Russian indoor record of 51.03 seconds, Alekseyeva was the 400 m silver medalist at the 1993 IAAF World Indoor Championships. She also won a gold in the 4 × 400 metres relay, alongside Marina Shmonina, Yelena Andreyeva, and Yelena Ruzina, but the team was stripped of the titles due to doping by Shmonina. At the 1993 World Championships in Athletics she narrowly missed out on an individual medal, taking fourth behind Jamaica's Sandie Richards, but left the competition with a silver medal through the Russian record breaking relay team including Ruzina, Margarita Ponomaryova and Irina Privalova, which was runner up to the United States with 3:18.38 minutes. Alekseyeva was the 400 m runner up at the 1994 European Athletics Indoor Championships. In her last year of international competition, she helped set a world indoor record in the 4 × 400 m relay, anchoring the team of Tatyana Chebykina, Svetlana Goncharenko and Olga Kotlyarova to top the podium at the 1997 IAAF World Indoor Championships in 3:26.84 minutes. She was an individual and relay finalist at the 1997 World Championships in Athletics. At national level, she won one outdoor national title in the 400 m at the 1997 Russian Athletics Championships and two indoor titles at the Russian Indoor Athletics Championships (1993, 1994). She was runner up in the 200 metres and 4 × 400 metres relay at the 1991 Soviet Athletics Championships and placed third in the 60 metres at the 1992 Russian Indoor Athletics Championships.
