Born and raised in Sault Ste. Marie, Alex is thrilled to bring his small town journalistic flavours to the nation's largest city. Reporting on the people, events and issues that matter most to residents fuels his passion, which he discovered as a student at the College of Sports Media. When he's not writing, Alex can be found exploring the downtown, playing the piano or getting heckled by locals for being a diehard Canucks fan
