My name is Alexander, but you can call me Alex. I live in New York City and report on gaming, esports, and the metaverse for Digiday.

Before joining Digiday, I freelanced for a wide range of national and regional print publications, websites, and now-defunct blogs, including the Washington Post, ESPN, and the Nation. I also worked as an associate media editor for the independent book publisher W. W. Norton & Company.

I am affiliated with the Asian American Journalists Association and the Society of Professional Journalists.

I am a natural-born citizen of the United States, a naturalized citizen of the Republic of Austria, and an e-resident of Estonia.

I’m a published scientist, former florist, and proud cat dad.
