Taylor Alexander is the Founder and President of T.E.A.M. She was born and raised in Michigan. She earned a B.S. in Mathematics in 2019 from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, where she was a Meyerhoff Scholar and Division I Volleyball player. She now holds her PhD in Educational Psychology from the University of Houston.

While Alexander has gained substantial research experience examining ethnic and gender disparities in STEM; she aims to use her career to create and improve culturally competent programs that address inequalities present in athletics and STEM. With the emotional and physical hardships that come with being an athlete, Alexander wanted to create a program that better assisted and supported student athletes’ current and transitional needs. She hopes T.E.A.M. will give the power back to the athletes by ultimately providing them with the support system they need.
