Alex Binkley is Chief Operating Officer and General Counsel of Third Kind, a venture capital firm that works with founders and companies at their earliest stages.

The child of 2 educators and husband of 1 educator, he is also the parent of a kindergartener and a 3rd grader at Northeast Elementary.  He has coached rowing in both the United States and Canada, as well as multiple seasons of soccer with Montclair United.

Never satisfied with less than excellent education, during virtual schooling he organized an outdoor "extra learning" for all of the kindergarteners on his street.  He is an active member of Northeast's SATp, where he has worked closely with both the principal and central office on issues affecting both his own children and those across the district.
