Hi my name's Alex. I'm 28 years old. I live in the amazing city of Austin, TX. I substitute teach, used to be a personal trainer, and drive a pedicab (I take drunk people from point A to point B on a bike).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I wrote a book. I spent college getting drunk and keeping a journal. 'Dear Diary I'm Wasted' will one day win a Pulitzer.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: How to make a good online dating profile. I'm actually trying to start a company where I help people do that.

Learn: Anything. I'm so open to growing as a person.

Share: My parents play violin in the New York Philharmonic and used to take me on tour with them as a kid. This is my first time going to Europe as an adult.
