About Me
Hey!
My name is Alex and I have an expressed interest in local politics, healing the ever-deepening divide in America, and seeing an end to the two-party system in the political landscape. I was born in Pennsylvania, moved to Florida, then to Washington state, back to Florida, then to Missouri, then back to Pennsylvania. By far Pennsylvania is my favorite state to live in and I don't plan on leaving.
I aspire to run for Pennsylvania House district 124 on a message of promoting small business creation, protecting the state's beautiful farmland and environment, funding public transportation projects, decentralizing power to local municipalities, and ridding our state government of its constant acts of blatant corruption currently present and growing each election cycle.

Content Creator at Zivvy News
October 2022 - June 2023
Content Creator for The Branch
June 2021 - April 2022
Social Media Manager for The Reunited States
At Zivvy News I am tasked with creating digestible short-form content for current topics and complicated political topics. Particularly, these videos are targeted at Gen Z with the goal in mind of making news for Gen Z by Gen Z voices.
My work for the Branch would consist of creating in-depth video explanations on current topics that are not being covered as thoroughly compared to conventional news media or provide videos that are deep dives on pressing issues that are facing the nation.
I managed the Twitter and Instagram for The Reunited States documentary team spreading the message of the film of healing the partisan divide between Americans of differing political leanings.

The Stair Party is a community-centered organization focused on local politics. We are dedicated to creating an alternative to the two-party system by building a nationwide movement. I am tasked with the administrative day-to-day involved with chapter development and retention.
