Alex is a designer and musician based in Los Angeles, California.

After leaving Goldenvoice in March of 2020, Alex is currently on his path toward becoming a licensed architect and worked on several projects on his on own during the pandemic including several Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU’s), residential renovations, and even construction supervision for a high-end retail project on Melrose Place in Los Angeles, California.

During his time at Goldenvoice, Alex designed site plans, oversaw construction, and created scale models of some of the largest concerts and music festivals in the Southern California including Coachella, Stagecoach, Desert Trip, Camp Flog Gnaw, and Arroyo Seco Weekend. Alex also had a hand in designing and creating drawing packages for various elements in the festivals like stages, artwork, delay towers, and other major infrastructural elements.

Prior to his job at Goldenvoice, Alex worked for Cliff Garten Studio as a designer and project coordinator, completing fabrication drawings for numerous sculpture projects ranging from public art to furniture design and landscape architecture. Working for Cliff provided an excellent opportunity for Alex to learn how to use his 3D modeling skills to work within the constraints of cast bronze, concrete, carved granite, laser-cut steel & aluminum, or bent metal rods.

Alex also worked for Landscape Morphologies Lab on a research project that involved developing custom software to visualize dust control methods for the Owens Dry Lake outside Lone Pine, CA. The software was created by using Processing and Arduino and as an interactive component we developed an “arcade” game that allowed members of the public to select different dust control technologies using buttons and a joystick, modulate their water use, and control experiential parameters, such as time of day and viewer position.

His other notable experiences include researching and prototyping airform concrete construction for residential projects with architect Douglas Stanton as well as working construction on low-income housing for bcWORKSHOP in Dallas, Texas.

Alex holds a Bachelor of Science in Architecture from UT Arlington and a Masters of Architecture II from SCI-Arc.
