Alex Martin
Associate Producer
Alex Martin is an IT Manager dual-wielding Bachelor’s degrees in Computer Science and Biology, a build optimized for both logic puzzles and questionable life choices. He’s been gaming since the glory days of text-parser adventures on MS-DOS, but took a lengthy “parental side quest” that paused his playtime for about seven years. Now that the little party members are more self-sufficient, he’s back to tackling action games, puzzles, and RPGs. The Left Behind Game Club concept fits perfectly – he’s literally catching up on all the titles he missed during his real-life grind.
