Alex Miller
I am a researcher, writer, and designer focused on how cities and communities can adapt to the climate crisis in a just and sustainable manner. Most recently, I was a senior analyst at Urban Ocean Lab, a think tank focused on climate policy in coastal cities. More details are in my CV.
Through my work, I assess contemporary environmental issues, catalyze innovative problem-solving, uphold climate justice, and engage diverse stakeholders to design and develop sustainable plans, policies, and communities.
Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn or send me an email.

- Noguchi as Collector

- Altered and Destroyed
Mobile Guide
I produced content for the launch of the Noguchi Museum’s mobile guide on the Bloomberg Connects app. The guide includes information and photos of all objects in the Museum’s permanent collection, an interactive map of the Museum, and details on current exhibitions. Text and photos for hundreds of objects were collected, organized, edited, and uploaded to the Bloomberg Connects CMS.

I led a redesign of SOM's website to express the company’s design ethos and provide a flexible, enduring platform for its content.
