    I was fortunate enough to work with Alex at an academic summer camp. I observed him instructing and leading students on many occasions and in a variety of tasks including performance. Alex is patient, thoughtful, and knowledgeable. His fantastic communications skills and fun yet professional demeanor make him an ideal instructor!
