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.

Alex is currently writing a freelance script for Netflix’s “Sweet Magnolias.” She has written for iHeart Radio’s “Solve” and “PEG’s Jackie Cox Variety Show.” As a playwright and lyricist she’s been awarded the Writers Digest Award in Playwriting, Big Vision Empty Wallet Playwriting Fellowship, and residencies at SPACE on Ryder and HBMG’s National Winter Playwrights Retreat. Her plays and musicals have been produced across the US, Canada, Mexico, and the UK.

She graduated from USC with her MFA in Writing for Film & Television and has placed in competitions including Final Draft Big Break, Austin Film Festival, Barnstorm, and ScreenCraft. She was selected for the 2021 WIF/Black List Episodic Lab with her pilot “Lost Hope Hotel” and is a 2023 FORGE Fellow, 2023 Stowe Lab Participant, and one of ISA’s 25 Screenwriters to Watch in 2023. Alex was the Showrunner’s Assistant and Script Coordinator on Amazon’s “The Horror of Dolores Roach” and is the Writers Assistant on Netflix’s “Sweet Magnolias.”
