About Alec
Current Program: MS in Biomechanics
Undergraduate Degree & Institution: B.A. In Exercise Science, Hastings College, 2025
Research Interests: My research focuses on the biomechanics of baseball pitching, with a particular interest in understanding how rotational power generation relates to pitching performance variables. I am also interested in applying these findings to player development contexts to improve performance and reduce injury risk.
Personal Background: I am a first-year master's student in biomechanics with a background as a collegiate baseball player, which drives my passion for applying sports science to real-world athletic performance. My career goal is to work in baseball player development, bridging the gap between biomechanics research and on-field application. Outside the lab, I enjoy playing video games.
Fun Fact: I have learned the art of glassblowing
