Candidate Connection

Myrtle Alexander completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2024. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Alexander's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.

Expand all | Collapse all

Originally from the U.K., with Jamaican roots, Dr. Myrtle is astute with 25+ years of experience as a business executive and numerous years as a scholar. This combination of skills and talent allows for a premium of executive management strategies and structures to be delivered, where all stakeholders leave the boardroom or the classroom with their expectations above and beyond satisfied. From the embodiment of economics, the mastery of management, the arena of academics and the pulpit of practitioners, Dr. Myrtle has researched, modified and further developed a succinct dual-education system, thus allowing for both underprivileged and privileged students to explore and pursue the path of PreK to PhD, as she did, where permeability is the determinant and the application of apprenticeships and academics, diversified by talent and traineeships, are profound.
Education Elevation, Economic Development, Mental Health Management, Homelessness and Public Safety
