Alex shares his journey from his hometown to Yale College and now Harvard University. He discusses his upbringing, liberal arts education, work in science journalism, and vision for a career that combines healthcare and business. From charting his own course to making the most of opportunities along the way, Alex reflects on the lessons that shaped his path.
