Biography
A career in finance and real estate ultimately led Alex to his most meaningful work — investing in people. After graduating from the Terry College of Business and beginning his career with Prudential’s real estate division, he earned an MBA from the University of North Carolina’s Kenan-Flagler Business School before returning to his hometown of Augusta.
Today, he serves with the Medical College of Georgia Foundation, where he helps steward more than $400 million in endowment assets supporting future health care professionals. He also founded the Belltower Student Foundation, an innovative program that gives medical students hands-on experience in investing, philanthropy and nonprofit governance while supporting community-focused initiatives.
A committed community leader, he has served on local government boards, leadership programs and church committees, and was recognized as one of Augusta’s Top 10 Young Professionals to Watch. A devoted alumnus, he remains actively engaged through philanthropy, alumni engagement and mentorship. He credits UGA with providing the educational foundation, leadership opportunities and personal relationships — including meeting his wife, Brooke — that continue to shape his life and career.
