Hey, I'm Andrew Alexander. Welcome to my own private little space. It's kinda crazy how I ended up here. Like wayyyy back in elementary school, I was always a creative person. Been that way for a while. Hated structure, and would always try to find new ways to approach things. Teachers hated it lol. Well some teachers grew accustomed to it and we found some common ground with everything. Fast forward to high school, man. This is where it really all started. Took one art class freshman year and never took another one. I became a structured fellow and got onto the business route. Change of pace for me. It sucked. So I had to make my decision fun somehow. **Enters** "Stay Woke Andrew". Created a YouTube channel and began vlogging. That blew up and had Auntie Anne's sending me free pretzels and all types of stuff. I had it like that. Had my own merch, and was dealing stickers of my slogan (Stay Woke Stay Healthy) in the hallways. I was running a whole business from the ground up and I LOVED IT. The creative juices were flowing and thennnnn I graduated. End of the road for it all it seemed. Enrolled in CU Boulder with undecided and had intentions of going into business and being a structured lad. That 95000+ data point spreadsheet that I had to do formulas for had other plans. Found the film program here and that's where I found myself able to be free and do what I actually liked to do. That Grillo Award and the tears running down the faces of my peers as they watched my Spring 2023 final speak for themselves. I was meant to be creative and I'm going to continue to excel at it my own way and create my own lane in this field. I treat my films like they are art. I take my time with them and perfect them until I feel it is ready to be presented and like every other creative, I criticize my own work even after it's published. I do have one piece of work that I feel is my best piece of work. Unfortunately, that piece of art is locked away in a vault that has 0.01% of being seen by the public eye. I should get back on track so I will summarize. I like poetry and it influences a lot of my recent work, I like video games. Peter Max's artwork is one of my favorite and the first and only art auction I have ever been to, I walked way with an art piece worth $950.
