places on communities. His specific areas of interest
include the economic, technical, social, and political
implications of building and transportation system
design, of population density, and of energy production,
distribution, and consumption. He is a graduate

Alexander
Alexander Pfeiffenberger was
born in Germany - but has spent the majority of
his life in Mobile, Alabama. It wasn't until coming
to Auburn that he found out that the environmental
awareness that he has come to know in Germany
- and felt was lacking in the states - was gaining
ground under the umbrella term sustainability.
Currently pursuing a degree in Computer Engineering
in the hopes of developing technology for developing
nations - Alexander is captivated by the power
of technology in assisting people to live more
productive and efficient lives. In his spare time
Alexander is known to engage in such bourgeois
hobbies as mountain biking, photography and blogging
- but ultimately he still hopes to play at least
a small part in changing the world for the better. |

Madison, AL, majoring in International Business,

employ sustainable practices in their daily lives
than Americans do. Her interest in sustainability
lies in discovering and promoting ways that individuals
and businesses alike can lessen their impact on
the environment. |
