a skilled detective with a high level of dedication to the cases he is assigned; dedication however proves to be a double-edged sword, as alec has a sort of obsession with solving cases he's assigned which detrimentally affects his mental well-being. overtly rude and short-tempered towards colleagues, doesn't hide his dislike for most people (favors ellie miller). doesn't address using first names. poor social skills. struggles with showing empathy towards others but tries in his own way.
