Lex grew up in New Jersey and had a pretty regular life – going to school and playing sports.

After graduating from Syracuse University in 1993, Lex joined the ranks of Corporate America. He worked as a Wall Street broker for four years. Then he started doing some mainstream modeling on the side. This experience proved to Lex he had what it took to perform in front of the cameras.

He soon built enough confidence to follow his dream and become an adult performer. Some people suggested he try it, because he was blessed with an 11" WMD. At first he did a few shoots around the New York area. However, his career really started to rise once he moved to Los Angeles.

He climbed the ladder one step at the time, until he was considered as a lead actor. By then he started to win awards, like the industry's male performer of the year in 2000, 2002 and 2003. He then felt it was time to move on towards new challenges. Lex founded Mercenary pictures because he felt it was the best way to express himself and his vision of porn.

Lex has always felt a porn movie should allow the watcher to recognize himself in it. If a guy had the chance to get dirty with these porn stars, he'd be on fire. He try's to show as much passion and involvement as possible in what he does. With that attitude, it is no wonder why Lex is a Porn Legend.
