Start with a tablespoon of geekiness.Dressed up as an Apple store worker for Halloween when I was 13. Now, I am working on my 3rd year as a distinguished and specialized AppleCare Advisor with Apple Inc. While I am knowledgeable in tech-culture and video game history, I also picked up a knack for internet lingo and metaverse experiences.

Add a splash of curiosity.Employed as a student worker facilitating the newest innovation and entrepreneurship initiative at the University of Texas at Austin — Imagine Moody. Working as a lab manager, I coordinate demo sessions and presentations for students and faculty across the university involving VR/AR and other emerging technologies.
On the second Wednesday of every month, I also coordinate a Moody Meetup, a meeting held in our lab at UT to discuss innovation and entrepreneurship in different topics and industries. At the Meetup, we also showcase demos for attendees to try themselves — a demo library I have also curated and organized myself. |
Finish with a serving of new ideas.I am frequently presenting new projects, individually and as a team. When I am not out drone piloting, skimboarding, or simply enjoying terrible fast-food delicacies, I am drafting and publishing real-world applications using the technology I am fortunate to engage with! Whether that involves virtual reality, 3D Modeling, or simply curating demos for the university, I always plan on delivering high quality work.
