Since graduating, she moved home to Fort Worth, where she works as a high school physics teacher and as Program Coordinator for (MS)2 at Phillips Academy Andover. Devoted to helping her community flourish, Alpha uses her knowledge of archaeology, architecture, DEI, and STEM to provide learning opportunities for underrepresented minorities in her hometown.
