Hi, I’m Alexander.

But most people call me Alex.

I’m a writer, editor, fitness instructor, and (generally) an artsy-fartsy-creative type.

For work, I coach indoor cycling classes and consult for a suite of media clients.

Some of my previous work includes:

• Making radio and podcasts for NPR.

• Writing a daily newsletter for WAMU 88.5 FM.

• Managing show launches and audience development for CNN Audio.

A few of the many things I most enjoy are film photography, hot and iced coffee, Land Rovers, playing card games, the topography of the state of California, and dance music.

In case you’re wondering, the “W” in my name is for William after my maternal grandfather. It sounds nice, yes, and it helps to differentiate me from the distinguished British author Alexander McCall Smith.

I live in the bustling metropolis of Austin, Texas, with my husband, Matthew, and our large yellow Labrador retriever, Charlie Brown.
