Mini bio

How it started.

Alex opened his YouTube account in March 2006, initially to like videos. His early uploads included drumming, everyday life and trips, which he shared through MySpace and Hi5.

Finding his route.

A 2009 Volaris storytelling contest brought a year of free flights and an aircraft bearing his name. He used the prize to travel around Mexico. A paid Super Bowl project in 2014 helped him see video creation as a career.

Going deeper.

His documentary work takes fans beyond sightseeing, from North Korea and Afghanistan to Venezuela. He was in Ukraine when Russia’s invasion began in 2022. Alongside these journeys, he shares his interest in flying through airport visits and aviation videos.
