Why I Choose to Work at Academic Innovation

My mission is to enable learners of all ages and backgrounds to access high quality education that fosters real positive change in their lives. CAI is working diligently to bring U-M’s extraordinary education to more people in new and innovative ways. I choose to work at CAI because it is where I can contribute to the development of accessible learning experiences for all people.

Current Roles/Previous Experience

As a Senior Program Manager, Alex works with academic units across U-M to create online and hybrid programs that reach local and global learners. After working in commercial media production in NYC for eight years, Alex studied Digital Humanities and Environmental Sustainability Education at the CUNY Graduate Center where he focused on how technology can foster robust, community-oriented learning in informal settings. Alex then joined BrainStation where he led their expansion of certificate and diploma programs to NYC and London as Sr. Program Manager, Education Experience.
