Alex Gallacher
Writer, Reporter, and Student in Toronto, Ontario, Canada
My name is Alex Gallacher and I’m an aspiring writer and reporter based out of Toronto, Ontario. I have worked for a long list of clients including the Ryerson Rams, the CWHL, the Brampton Beast and most recently NASCAR Home Tracks. Ever since I was young, I have always had a passion for writing. I hope one day to work up to become a broadcaster for NASCAR on NBC.
I have always had a passion not just for writing but for racing as well. I have always been fascinated by these amazing pieces of engineering and seeing how each competitor drivers on the track. When I’m at the track, I write things like qualifying reports, practice stats and race recaps. I also conduct interviews with the drivers themselves to use in Race Central Live which is run during race weekends.
I have most recently started a series called “Getting to Know” where I conduct 1 on 1 interviews with the drivers and give fans the chance to know the real person behind the firesuit. So far it has been met with great praise from both the drivers and teams in NASCAR. Above I have linked one of my most recent Q&As with driver Marc-Antoine Camirand. Take a read and I hope you enjoy!
