For a guy that doesn't sleep much, Alex has an amazingly coherent vision for the world. Concerned with the death of "shop," his vision for bringing a "maker" experience to the students in Columbus is only one part of his story. He'll share how that vision is informed by his by morning, noon and night passion (yes, different than his day job), where he's quietly built one of the most dynamic collaboratives of engineers, artists and tinkerers in the region.
