Alexander Lam, who uses the pseudonym Hallie Lama, was born in Loosdrecht and attended The Utrecht School of the Arts, but stayed for only one year. He had his first cartooning job in 1998-99, when he illustrated the stories of 'Zoenvis en Knuffelbeer' by Harmen Lustig and Steven de Munnik in the ID&T magazine Slam!. He then took a break from drawing for several years. By 2004, he resumed his activities by contributing webcomics to several sites.

'Joop en Harrie'. Translation: "Oh, oh. Nature calls. Ah, just in time. God damn! God damn! It hasn't been cleaned yet. I'm not sitting on that, not me. Hmm... Aaaaah... Am I glad that I'm not yet potty-trained." 

He participated in Margreet de Heer's 'Sprookjes in Strookjes' anthology (2006) and several editions of 24 Hour Comics, during which the rapid cartoonist alway came in last and finished up first. He contributed a comics diary to MYX Magazine, featuring stories with Fred de Heij's Pulpman, and draws the comic strip 'Joop en Harrie' for the cat lover's magazine Majesteit.
