Welcome to AI Decodes the System, the podcast where we decode the complex systems of data, tech, law, and public policy for everyone to understand. I am your host, Amber Ivey, also known as AI. In today's episode, we're thrilled to have Alex DerHovhannessian, the Vice President of Services at Qlarion, a GCOM Company, where he helps governments transform using data and analytics. Alex has over twenty years of experience and has built a successful career in consulting, driving data-informed decisions, improving user experiences, and developing public/private partnerships.

Alex resides in Richmond, VA with his family and is actively involved in the local community. He sits on the board of Families Forward Virginia and enjoys guest lecturing on Leadership, Business, Networking, and Data.

During our conversation, we explore Alex's entrepreneurial journey, his transition into the data space, and his experience carrying the Olympic torch in the 1996 Olympics. Alex shares his insights on engaging with stakeholders, real-world examples of how data can improve lives, and advice for those interested in diving into the data world without a math or analytical background.

We also discuss the importance of understanding and participating in the data space and why it's crucial for our listeners to be aware of the opportunities available to them.
