Hi! I’m Alex. I’m a PW board member and I love 24 and geocaching. Right now if you ask me about working on a show I may say no, but I’d love to take on mentoring positions and help out in general.

I am now the upstairs space coordinator, so if you are at all interested in putting up a show in the upstairs space or have questions about using the upspace or putting together a show please contact me!
