(☞ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)☞

Hiya! I’m Alex, a designer & community builder based in Toronto, Ontario. Currently I manage the Sportsbook & Media team at PENN Entertainment / theScore. In the past I’ve led teams and contributed to products at Jobber, MoMA, KUDO, and Produktiv. I also work closely with Figma on Friends of Figma.

Away from the screen I can usually be found building keyboards, modding gameboys, reading, and scouring the net for interesting interactive art. I’m most active on bluesky, mastodon & posts (rip), but if neither suit ya I’ve previously streamed, posted, and shared on twitch, youtube, and cohost (rip). ‘

Up to date work samples can be viewed here. You will need a password to access. Available as a PDF as well.

Product Design Manager - Sportsbook & Media, PENN Entertainment / theScore

Empowering the sports fan's experience.

2023 - Present

At the start of 2025 we restructured our product teams and merged our media (theScore) and Sportsbook (theScore Bet, ESPN Bet, Retail, internal tools) units into a single business group. I now have the privilege of working with 9 creative IC’s spanning a broad range of sports media and betting surfaces.

Before the restructuring I managed a team of 6 designers and 1 UX writer who worked on theScore Bet, ESPN Bet, retail sportsbooks, our growing ecosystem with ESPN, and PENN Entertainment's industry leading internal betting tools.

In November of 2023 ESPN BET launched and reached #8 in Google Play’s Overall Free and was the #1 Top Free App in Apple’s App Store.
