I'm Alex — everyone calls me Alex. I've always thought a good strategy and a good trip are built the same way: a clear destination, a realistic route, and no wasted moves.

I'm based in Melbourne and split my time between two things I genuinely love: helping small brands find their next stage of growth, and planning travel for people who'd rather spend their time living the trip than researching it.

I've built itineraries across more than 20 countries, spanning South America, Southeast Asia, and Oceania — the kind of ground-level knowledge that doesn't come from a search results page. On the business side, I work with founder-led brands on marketing and go-to-market strategy — practical, hands-on work with people who need a plan they can execute Monday morning.

Different clients, same discipline: listen first, plan carefully, deliver something that actually gets used.
