Bio
Aleks had lived in Russia until the age of eight. He later moved to America and was adopted. His first language is Russian.

He had studied graphic design in college, but later dropped out. At the time he felt that his Youtube channel had become fairly successful.

Youtube
Aleks' created his current channel on December 10th, 2008.

His first videos were Minecraft machinima. However, Aleks' original Youtube channel was hacked, and most of the videos were deleted. This led him to create his current channel. During this time, fellow future Creature SlyFoxHound helped him, by directing his own followers to checkout his new channel. Aleks and Sly came to create several series together.

Eventually, Aleks and Sly would live together in Colorado, not far from the Creature House. Aleks made several appearances with The Creatures during this time.

Creature
At RTX 2013, Jordan Mathewson jokingly inducted Aleks into The Creatures, treating a water bottle as if it were Aleks. The other creatures then followed the gag, making references to the water bottle being a new Creature. Later, during episode 77 of Creature Talk, The Creatures specifically stated that the water bottle gag was planned, and that they had not actually invited Aleks into The Creatures.

However, despite this clarification, many fans speculated that Aleks was in fact being inducted into The Creatures, due to a tweet by GaLM. Later, while at dinner, they discussed inviting Aleks into The Creatures, finally deciding to accept him.

Cow Chop, leaving The Creatures
Aleks began appearing in videos uploaded to a new channel, Cow Chop, in early April, 2016, and appeared in regularly uploaded coop Let's Plays with James starting on April 15th. On April 28th, one day after a video showing the Cow Chop set being moved out from the Creature office, Aleks and James announced on a Q&A livestream that they, as well as Joe and Aron, had left The Creatures two months prior.
