Congrats to 2026 Award Winners!

Science ATL is so lucky to work with some of the most passionate folks on the planet. Our Atlanta STEM professionals and science enthusiasts inspire us every day, but this year, we had a few standouts!

Alex Grizzell is a neuroscientist at Emory University who makes it his goal to inspire children to pursue science. And that he has! He brings brain images and even actual brains (!) into classrooms to show off what a neuroscientist studies! With more than 100 service hours spreading his love of neuroscience, Alex has connected with 2000 students at seven high needs schools in his volunteer efforts in our programs. And - a bonus that he shares his name with our mascot!

Since Day 1 of the Atlanta Science Festival, Jennifer has brought creativity, curiosity, and fun to science engagement. In her day job, she is the Integrated Science Curriculum Coordinator for the Georgia Tech College of Sciences. But outside of that, she's leading science ghost tours, singing in a science rock band, hosting a science fashion show, and more. Jennifer has helped hundreds of people see science in new ways. We're delighted to work with her year after year! 

Since 2023, Salesforce employees have shown up for Atlanta students through Science ATL programs, as mentors and volunteers at schools and the Atlanta Science Festival. Along the way, they've supported STEM classrooms, and helped young people discover new career paths.

In the past year alone, their volunteer and grant support helped Science ATL reach 4,300 students across 38 metro Atlanta schools!

We’re incredibly grateful for their commitment to building a stronger, more STEM-powered Atlanta.
