Response to John Petry - Alpha Schools Introduction

Thanks for the intro, Justin.

Hi John - nice to meet you. I've heard great things about you from Justin, especially your courageous work on the generationally important issue of fixing schools.

I consulted for Alpha Schools for four months on development and strategy work after graduating from Gauntlet. While there are reasons I'm not putting my energy behind it anymore (I could share a bit via Signal if relevant), I think Joe could be an interesting partner to advance school choice. He's the sole funder of everything about Alpha (personally invested $500+ million so far), and might be open to collaborating in different ways with key school choice donors like you.

Depending on what you're looking for - whether it's getting a child enrolled in one of the schools, exploring using their software, aligning on political strategy, or something else entirely - I can try to intro you to the right person.

What specifically are you hoping to explore?
