Stand-up guy
Though his 9-to-5 gig is as a television producer, Alex claims, “I’m a comedian at heart — I love making people laugh.”
Lean on him
Alex doesn’t like to brag, but he works out regularly and is particularly proud of his broad shoulders.
Happy hour
Alex has no shame in ordering bargain brews like Coors Light.
Rewind that
His favorite movie is “The 40-Year-Old Virgin.” “I must have seen it 15 times,” Alex says. “And I can still see it again.”
No games
Though he’s always up for good times, Alex’s idea of fun isn’t game night. “I’m actually so very bad at board games, ” he admits.
The hangover
While visiting Mongolia, Alex uncharacteristically got into a bar brawl. “It was maybe the best night of my life for the sheer weirdness of the situation,” he recalls.
Teen spirit
Alex has a fear of teenagers. “There’s nothing scarier than a pack of irrational teens at their physical peak,” he says.
Business class
He prefers getting around the streets of New York by subway. “You get a lot done on it,” Alex says.
Alex will be hooked up by OkCupid’s Crazy Blind Date app. Who do you think is his best match?
