Bio
Age- 24
Major- Marketing



Alex is a millennial/early Gen Z adult who grew up watching Cars on repeat. Now a busy professional who balances a 9-to-5 with weekend half-marathons, trail runs, or casual 5Ks. They're passionate about fitness but crave joy and personality in their gear rather than sterile, all-black performance shoes. Alex values nostalgia as a motivator, something that sparks childlike excitement to lace up and hit the pavement, especially on tough training days.
