Alex had worked as a carpenter before joining Drones. When asked about his job, he told Pelican.com:

“I was a carpenter and contractor who happened to take up a camera.” Which led to the desire to fly that camera remotely.”

He began his career as a freelance creative director at Western Digital, XOAR Propeller, and The Tiffen Company, among other firms, after discovering his passion, before establishing his own company in 2013. Kavanagh, 35, is also a “Creative Director at SDSU’s Centre for Unmanned Technologies and CRPAA (Certified Remote Pilots Association of America) Board member.” Alex is passionate about drones and anything related to them, but if he could do anything else, he would want to be an “astronaut” and explore space.

Stayin’ Alive by the Bee Gees drives him in the morning, and one slogan he uses when things become rough is:

“Continue to create. Don’t give up.”
