My name is Alex, a product designer engineer and entrepreneur based in New Jersey. I’m the founder and CEO of Virtual Shield Systems, where we design and install technologies that secure our communities through the power of electronic security.
Appointed directly by the CEO of EarthCam, I was selected to serve as Senior Field Engineer for an important client, putting my typical product design repsonsibilities on hold. I was tasked with travelling across the globe with equipment in hand and a loose plan, get a camera streaming in every major location. in just two weeks time I had scouted 5 locations and installed cameras in a country which I did not speak the naitve tongue.
When you’re building a website for a company as ambitious as Planetaria, you need to make an impression. I wanted people to visit our website and see animations that looked more realistic than reality itself.

I tend to take the road less traveled by. I went to college for a few years before deciding that managing my own business would better suit me. I felt school wasn't where I belonged my whole life, and college was not the exception I hoped it would be. What did excite and challenge me, however, was starting my own electronic security business, Virtual Shield Systems LLC.
