Here are some other fun random facts:
- Emerging technologies such as depth sensing, augmented reality, and virtual reality interests me. When I first watched the movie “Minority Report” back in 2002, I knew I wanted to design for a world like that.
- I have a gaming degree. At least 3 programming classes was a requirement along with extensive classes on understanding gamer engagement.
- I’ve an appreciation for men’s fashion. I’ve been consciously aware since the mid 2000s.
- I’ve been a fan of modifying cars since the 90s. My biggest project was a 2002 Subaru WRX sleeper with an 18g turbo, front-mount converted intercooler, turbo-back exhaust, up/down pipe combo, and an engine management system. I can’t seem to stop since I now have a 2014 Subaru BRZ with a cat-back exhaust, downpipe, and OFT along with a suspension setup with coilovers, lower control arms, and RPF1 wheels (which is my 3rd set).
- I recently picked up on photography. You can check my progression on Instagram.
