He's been tapped by great composers such as Henry Jackman, John Debney, Christophe Beck, Sean Callery, Tony Morales, BT, The Newton Brothers, Christopher Lennertz, William Ross and Pinar Toprak for composing and score producing. He was nominated for a Primetime Emmy with Pinar Toprak for the score to HBO's hit docuseries, "McMillion$."

Alex's music can be heard in the hit Marvel series "WandaVision" for Disney+, the musical series "Up Here" for 20th Television, Netflix's "The Gray Man" starring Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans and Ana de Armas, "Red One" starring Dwayne Johnson, Chris Evans and Lucy Liu for Amazon, Jerry Seinfeld's "Unfrosted," the Walt Disney animated feature "Strange World," "Ron's Gone Wrong" for Twentieth Century Studios, Marvel's "The Inhumans," "Minority Report" for 20th Century Television and "Designated Survivor" for ABC. Upcoming projects include Paramount's "Smurfs" and Amazon's "The Bluff."

His solo film composing credits include the action-thriller, "Stone Cold Fox," as well as five films with director and actor, Danny Roebuck: "Getting Grace," "Lucky Louie," "The Hail Mary," "St. Nick of Bethlehem," and "Tuesday's Flu." He has also scored "Palm Swings," "Shirin in Love," "A New York Christmas," "The Zim," "FEAR" and others. He co-composed the scores to feature "The Throwaways," the 10 episode series "Operation Change," and the documentary feature "A Case For Kindness."
