With a strong foundation in foreign financing and film markets from their time as Creative Director for John Ptak's Arsenal Films, liaising closely with Untitled Entertainment, Alex moved to BiFrost Pictures as Director of Development, serving as the development and production executive on several projects including Paul Bettany’s directorial debut Shelter (starring Jennifer Connelly and Anthony Mackie), and Don Cheadle’s Miles Ahead, on which she also served as an Associate Producer.
