Alex Espenshade

September 4, 2019

Early Days

Alex Espenshade was born in Maryland, USA. He started working as a production assistant at a construction company. His mom got him the job because she worked at that company too, but eventually he moved from the position of production assistant to jobs like bookkeeping and IT support. He never really found the joy in all of that, so he decided to move to LA in order to pursue his dreams of becoming an actor. He wanted to become an actor ever since he was a little boy, but life in LA would guide him down a different path.

Modeling Career

When he came to LA he didn't really know anybody there. He started networking and meeting new people. One of the people he met was Joey Suarez, and he guided him to become a model. This wasn't something that Alex Espenshade even considered before, but not long after that he would be hard at work to create a good modeling portfolio. He was picking up gigs left and right in hopes of getting something good, and eventually he started to really feel like he was having a breakthrough in the industry. He started getting modeling gigs one after the other in rapid succession.

He says that it wasn't easy building his career as a model from scratch, but that his persistence and ambition has guided him to keep on going and pushing further. The biggest challenge he says was actually taking the chance and traveling to LA without knowing anyone. It was a big risk, but once he took it he says that nothing but good things started happening to him. There are still things he needs to work on, but all in all he feels his modeling career is headed in a good direction. He mostly shoots editorial content and lifestyle photos, but he's branching out to different genres now.

Acting Career

Alex Espenshade never really stopped pursuing his acting career, even with the initial success that he has had in modeling. He was cast in the lead role of the series Fallen Love. He says that his unique hair color sets him apart from the rest of the people trying to get their break in the movie industry, so he feels that he has a good shot there as well.

Social Media

You can find Alex Espenshade on pretty much every piece of social media out there. He's on Instagram @alexespenshade and he has over 24,000 followers there.
