   personal_statement: Alex is a geologist conducting geologic mapping and geologic
     research for the Appalachian Basin Project.  His past research explored the
     structure and kinematics of the Indo-Burman Ranges and Naga Fold-Thrust Belt
     in Northeast India. His current research interests include the structure and
     stratigraphy of the Appalachian Basin, the tectonostratigraphic evolution of
     the Appalachian Valley and Ridge physiographic province, fault-slip kinematics,
     subsurface geometry and kinematic modeling of geologic structures, virtual outcrop
     modeling, advanced desktop/field mapping applications in GIS.
   professional_experience:
   - Alex began a career with USGS in 2022 as a pathways intern. In 2023, he joined
     the Florence Bascom Geoscience Center in Reston, Virginia.
