text: Digital Marketer. ENTREPRENEUR. Adventurer.
  An entrepreneurial resource with web expertise. As an experienced digital marketer and brand-builder, I offer a unique approach for growing businesses and achieving goals.
  In addition to digital strategy, I have a history of entrepreneurship and an ever-expanding list of hobbies. I'm a self-proclaimed whiskey aficionado, an enthusiast of fine wine, a former co-founder of a boutique cigar brand, and an adventurous traveler in constant pursuit of any trailhead pointed away from 'ordinary'.
  Raised in Northeastern Pennsylvania, I found my way to Washington, DC in the summer of 2011 to attend the George Washington University, studying Philosophy and Public Affairs. After graduating in December 2014, I made DC a more permanent home, joining a tech research startup in the heart of Dupont Circle. Years later, I still find myself in the DC area with a bit of experience, a dash of expertise, and a healthy serving of ambition

  Alex has been a complete pleasure to work with. He is extremely detail oriented and implements feedback amazingly well. I hired Alex to do some work on my personal website and his work went above and beyond my expectations. Given my limited knowledge of web design, I was thankful that he made some additional suggestions for optimizations outside of what I had asked for. My site looks professional, clean, and better than I could have even expected. He keeps communication lines open, is quick to respond, and delivers on time as promised. I highly recommend Alex for your website freelance needs. He's the best.
