Alex Nizet
Director of Athletic Development
Alex received a B.A. in
Philosophy at UC Berkeley and a J.D. from McGeorge School of Law. A licensed
attorney in California, Alex went on to receive his Master of Divinity from
Yale University. His prior professional experience includes serving as the
Director of Partnerships and Business Development at St. HOPE, a faith-based,
inner-city community development organization founded by NBA All-Star Kevin
Johnson. Before his tenure with St. HOPE, he worked as the Director of
Business and Legal Affairs at Jaffe/Braunstein Films, a prominent television

Working in a faith community like Westmont has provided Alex with a wonderful opportunity to integrate his theological education with his professional life. An athlete and a huge sports fan, he enjoys working with colleagues and donors who share his passion for intercollegiate athletics. Alex is also a member of the Spiritual Care Team at Cottage Hospital and volunteers there as an on-call chaplain.
