Alexander Berman Email & Phone Number

I am a student at the Dalton School with a passion for leveraging computer science to foster a more sustainable future. My goals center around using algorithms to advance environmental research and develop AI-driven climate models.Currently, I am a research intern at the McNeill lab at Columbia University, where I develop algorithms to optimize reduced chemical mechanisms, increasing simulation accuracy by up to 70%. Additionally, I serve as the executive producer for the CleanTechies podcast, which aims to help aspiring innovators in the climate tech space navigate the complex climate landscape by sharing the stories, advice, and lessons of leading climate founders and investors. Aside from these rolls, I enjoy working on passion projects with a focus on increasing accessibility to computer science and advocating for climate justice. At Dalton, I co-lead the computer science team, which trains students to compete in the American Computer Science League; and I am also co-founder and president of Coding the Future, a free computer science tutoring initiative aimed at making coding education accessible to everyone. Outside of school, I am on the national leadership board of the Jewish Youth Climate Movement, a Gen-Z led effort to create a sustainable future.
