Who is Alex?
I am currently a chemistry Ph.D. candidate at the University of Florida, a top five public institution. On top of this, I am also pursuing a career in professional racing. Born and raised in north Georgia, I developed a passion for racing and its scientific aspect at an early age. For the last decade, I have been involved in motorsports whether it be through volunteer work or as a driver. My goal is to raise interest in STEM through my passions of science and racing by engaging with local communities and schools.

Outreach
The goal of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) outreach is to excite and engage people inside or outside the classroom to garner their interest in science. With my personal scientific background as a research chemist and motor racing roots, my goal is to make STEM concepts accessible to everyone. Motorsports can not only be used to bring attention to science and engineering, but can also demonstrate many of their fundamental principles.
Sponsorship and Marketing
Motorsports can provide a unique canvas for businesses to market their brands and offer a variety of different promotional styles and opportunities. On, at, or off the track motor racing can assist in brand promotion, direct sales, employee recruitment, networking, raising awareness of global issues or charitable causes, and entertaining clients with an experience like no other. The distinct and exciting flair of the motorsports atmosphere can be an excellent marketing platform to engage clientele and kickstart corporate discussions.

Services
As a scientist and racer, I have had the pleasure to garner a multitude of skills throughout my career. I feel that it is a responsibility to do my best at sharing what I have learned in these fields with others. I provide services for one-on-one to group instruction in scientific topics and driving coaching, as well as educational consulting for those looking for guidance in their educational careers. With my experience in designing coursework, I also offer curriculum and lesson design strategies for K-12 schools and collegiate level classwork.
