Hi, I'm Alex Roe.

About me
I'm years old, born and raised in Georgia, and have spent the last 10 years in San Francisco. I studied CS at Georgia Tech and started my career at Google (PM on Search, then Google Photos, then founding PM for Google Lens). Left to explore and built JournalBot. Joined Cresta as employee #5 and after four+ years left to found Summit.
My life purpose
- Know and be the best version of myself
- Be a great husband, brother, son, and friend
- Contribute net positive impact to the world
- Appreciate the wonder and shortness of life
My work purpose
Solving problems with technology at the intersection of (1) a problem for myself (2) a problem for others (3) a net positive impact. I'm a generalist and fluid between coding/designing/product/whatever it takes to be done. I love the early, fuzzy, 0 to 1 nature of products.
