About Alex

My passion for the camera and performance-based storytelling is rooted deep in my childhood. While my first summer job was in photography, I discovered the stage as a small child, eventually leading me to attend Theatre School in university and moving to the screen post-graduation. I have since diversified my artistic vision to include Directing, Collaborative Production, Writing, and ultimately my love for creation in Filmmaking.

While I have taken new steps to not just perform in stories but to learn to create them, I continue to pursue my own passion in performance, expanding from the stage to screen both in education and credentials, as well as expand my entrepreneurial horizons and already eclectic skillset. Outside of my creative pursuits, I have experience in a wide variety of businesses, including technology, sales, customer service, hospitality, event management, and design.

My diverse set of abilities, passion for film making, photography, and storytelling, and a desire to integrate drama and technology led to the creation of Waking World Productions in 2014. What started as freelance videography and creative event visuals, evolved into my mission to create provocative & visually stimulating content, and engaging stories that are professionally edited with the utmost care, technically, intellectually, and emotionally.

Unique traits: I have a diverse set of abilities both in front and behind the camera with influences from a variety of different cultures, styles, ideologies, and even spiritualities. Like many creators, I hope to explore questions of the human condition from as many perspectives as I can.
