Alex was raised on the border of Alaska and British Columbia at the end of one of the longest fjords in the world next to the largest national forest in the United States. He has lived, studied, worked and volunteered in many countries and regions but he came home to the Pacific Northwest to live, and he chose Clark County to raise his family.

One of Alex’s favorite parks is Moulton Falls Regional Park, pictured above.
