Alex found climbing in 2006 when a friend dragged him to Pittsburgh's first climbing gym. And it stuck! In 2017, he co-founded ASCEND alongside Paul and Aaron, bringing that same life-changing experience to more people across western PA. As CEO, he works across every corner of the business, from operations and finance to culture and community. From the beginning, he wanted to build something tangible: something people would walk away from excited to tell their friends about. Turns out, a climbing gym fits that bill pretty well.
