Alex does not have the classic CV of a beach volleyball player, being born in the province of Portdenone to a Canadian mother. An initial introduction at 8 years old was, however, enough to make him fascinated and, after a brief career in indoor volleyball, he was finally able to devote himself body and soul to this sport. A little over a year after appearing on the scene, with Adrian Carambula and, despite the relatively recent formation of the duo, they attained a bronze in Major Series in Porec, silver at the European Championship in Klagenfurt and affirmations at the Open of Antalya and Doha, in addition, of course, to Olympic qualification (he could not fight for a place in London due to a shoulder injury). His sights are now set on Rio, but in the more distant future, he already has in the pipeline the idea of moving overseas, to the land of his mother.
