👋 Personal

Hi, I’m Alex. Sometimes I go by Alexander.

I live in Satellite Beach, FL, but spend a lot of time in Bryson City, NC.

When I’m not working, I’m likely spending time with my family, traveling, hiking, or wandering around Costco.

Most of my career has been in product and engineering, and the intersection between the two, with a bit of operations mixed in.

I particularly enjoy blending creativity with technical expertise and excel at taking ideas from conception to delivery.

I believe technology’s greatest purpose is to make the world better for everyone. If not, what’s the point? ✊
