I’m Alexander Bricken, an Old Etonian and student in the class of 2022 at Minerva: an unconventional university that is changing the future of higher education. My journey has brought me from the traditional to the polar opposite - I love calculated risk!
I am majoring in Computer Science (Data Science & Statistics, Mathematics & Operations Research) and minoring in Physics. As well as this, I like to think of myself as a social entrepreneur, investor, and software engineer. I am always looking for unique opportunities.
Learning excites me. I want to know about the world; whether it be history, politics, philosophy or economics.
By hobby, I am a fitness enthusiast, photographer, graphic designer, DnD player, and global traveller. I am teaching myself the guitar, and wish I was a DJ.
