Alex Wang
I’m obsessed with mobility, technology, and solutions.
About
I use technology to address pressing public problems, especially in transportation and mobility. I believe innovation is key to increasing the pace at which quality of life improves.
I'm currently a Business Analyst at McKinsey & Company in Los Angeles, California. Outside of work, I'm a transportation nerd, serial side quester, casual runner, serious foodie, and longform journalist enthusiast. I'm also a self-taught web developer and infrastructure engineer.
It's nice to meet you! Find out what I'm up to right now.
