Most people call me Alex.

I'm a writer, journalist and editorial leader with more than a decade of experience in media and communications. I specialize in shaping meaningful stories and building audiences across platforms.

Over the years, I’ve reported and produced everything from local newscasts to nationally recognized podcasts. My work includes producing, editing and launching shows at NPR and CNN; writing a daily D.C. newsletter for thousands of readers during the COVID-19 pandemic; and managing content strategy for global organizations tackling some of humanity’s most complex challenges.

I believe in content that respects the audience, in editorial systems that elevate smart ideas and in storytelling as a way of understanding the world. I’m guided by the fundamental principles of empathy, precision, care for language and a strong point of view.

I grew up in North Carolina and now live in Austin, Texas, where I split time between my professional work, personal writing and my side gig coaching indoor cycling at Equinox. Otherwise, you’ll probably find me reading a book, drinking coffee or goofing off with my husband
and our Labrador Retriever, Charlie Brown.
