Hey! I’m Alex.

So I’ve spent years trying to figure my life out. Trying to choose a profession let alone a place to live has been a constant challenge, I’m indecisive to say the least. There are a few things I'm sure of however:

  • I know I enjoy being creative, working with interesting people, coming up with insane ideas and plans for world domination together.

  • I’m good under pressure, when sh*t hits the fan and someone needs to solve a problem or a friend needs support I’m usually there.

  • I know I get way too excited about musicals, any sort of live production and Japanese katsu curry.

  • I’m a traveller and I thrive when I’m connecting with new people in all sorts of places, even if it means sleeping in a hostel room with 8 to 12 others.

At my core I’m a dysfunctional creative and as long as I’m surrounded by others that inspire me, I know I’ll make some pretty cool shit.

 

But what do I actually do? Like professionally.

My past work has involved running small businesses in ecommerce, digital media and small business consulting.

Primarily I have been the main brand and design consultant for Movement Health and Fitness. I had a major role in creating the brand strategy that transformed 3 fitness clubs over 5 years. This has helped me refine all sorts of creative skills such as; brand strategy, business development, marketing, photography, videography, graphic design, video/photo editing, web design and copywriting.

My previous experience in retail and hospitality has not only given me great understanding of businesses from the customers perspective but taught me a lot about how good businesses are run and also how to take care of a team.
