In my own words

— Alex

I'm Alex. Graphic Designer, Musician, Beer Brewer, and past semi-professional Barista. I grew up in St. Paul, MN and have been practicing Graphic Design professionally for nearly two years. I'm an avid guitar player and vocalist and love to explore as much as I can. I am a printmaking lover and try to incorporate it into my work when applicable.
