Mr. Alexander Rodrigues- Technology Coordinator/ Tech Support, and School Tech Squad Instructor 
Picture of Mr. Alexander Rodrigues
Alex Rodrigues arrived in the United States from Bangladesh when he was twelve years old. As a junior high school student, he felt alienated from his peers and experienced a sense of differential treatment. Once at LaGuardia, Alex found his comfort zone and blossomed socially as well as academically. Eager to immerse himself in all the school had to offer; Alex became a member of the student government and a variety of clubs. He also worked as an intern at the LaGuardia Media Center, a technical training center in Manhattan, and as an engineer's assistant at the School Construction Authority. As a result of his internships, Alex discovered his love of technology and engineering, and decided to pursue a career in Computer Technology.

​An active Internationals' alumnus, Alex has given back to his school community in so many ways. As the Technolgy Coordinator at Brooklyn International High School, he oversees the school's computer system and labs, troubleshooting and solving technological problems. Committed to helping students identify and develop their individual interests and to pursue them in a real-world context, Alex mentors a group of "Tech Squad" students. Under his guidance, members of the squad have become certified computer technicians, and many hold paid after school and summer positions repairing computers and managing networks.
