Alden has co-created and edited shows such as WTF AMERICA at The Recount, BETWEEN THE LINES at HuffPost, and BODY HACKS at Mic. He has worked with NBC, nonprofit organizations, Code and Theory, T-Brand Studios, Red Bull, and Heineken on projects ranging from documentary series to Turner Broadcast's upfront at Madison Square Garden to internationally broadcast commercials.

He loves sci-fi films with aliens and/or robots.
