Biography

Alex is a fixer. A former press manager, she can fix your image. A former Apple Genius, she can fix your phone. A former PA for the Radio City Rockettes, she can fix… anything. And while she doesn't recommend fixing people, her work explores broken families as they attempt to piece themselves back together. This is, of course, inspired by her own fascinating family of government agents, body snatchers, and cult defectors.
