Hi, I’m Alex!

I help individuals, leaders, and teams bring mindfulness and connection into everyday life—not because I’m perfect, but because I’ve seen how transformative it can be.

By day, I work on policy in the federal government. Previously, I was a diplomat at the State Department and World Bank. I’ve led workshops, trainings, and retreats inside and outside government. As a contributing writer for Psychology Today, I explore how to bring a more mindful, human approach to work and life.

You’ll also find me cooking, exploring the outdoors, dancing, and mildly embarrassing my dog, Walnut.
