Alex is the CEO and co-founder of Blueground. Blueground seeks to solve a lot of the hassles Alex experienced first-hand, as both a frequent business traveler and expat. Chief among them: how we can give people a place that feels like home and help them start living from day one. Prior to Blueground, Alex worked as a strategy consultant for McKinsey & Company for six years as well as on the strategy team of Samsung Electronics as an Associate Principal. In total, Alex has lived and worked in more than 15 cities around the globe. In 2009, Alex was sponsored by McKinsey to attend the full-time MBA program at INSEAD.

Blueground is a global PropTech company with a curated network of 10,000+ quality, turnkey, move-in ready homes enabling people to live flexibly wherever they choose.
