Alex works in editorial roles for Archer Magazine, Cordite Poetry Review and Sunder Journal. She has been awarded fellowships with Writers Victoria, Arts Access Australia, The Wheeler Centre, and Midsumma Pathways. Her work has been shortlisted for the Kat Muscat Fellowship, the Next Chapter Scheme, the Geelong Writers Prize, the Born Writers Award, the Gwen Harwood Poetry Prize, and the Lord Mayor's Creative Writing Award.

Alex's debut poetry collection, Potty Mouth, Potty Mouth, is out now with Cordite Books. It was a highly commended runner-up in the Five Islands Poetry Prize.

Fun fact: Alex also collects teeth and hair, so... feel free to cough up if you ever feel some cavities or wisdom teeth festering within your jaw. One time, Gillian Cosgriff even wrote an impromptu song about this little hobby. So yeah, there's that, too.
