Ayzenberg

2017

Agency: Ayzenburg, SPACE Team, Oculus & Next VR 2017, Pasadena

I was fortunate to be the #3 hire for Ayzenburg's new technology agency, built around VR technology marketing, assigned to work on their new client Oculus & NextVR. During my time there, I participated in designing social media, future planning, and strategy for social media. Working with members of both executives from Oculus, Next VR, and Ayzenburg, I was allowed to work in a high-level environment and glean a realistic understanding of the industry. A fun note is that I was responsible for doing all of the game captures in VR, so most of the early gameplay is just me having a blast and enjoying the future.

Voyadi was hoping to provide opportunities to merge Masterclass education with AirBnB. I began to research and development of VR sessions to create a live-streaming experience for students and travelers.

AstroReality

2018-2020

AstroReality allowed me to stretch my creativity and work directly and personally with developers and executives. While I did other work for AstroReality, such as Design, Brand Strategy, and Content Development, the work I'm most proud of is my contributions to their AR platform. I spent time helping design products and improve each of their applications in UX. Overall, I was responsible for talking with clients and developers to find the best solution for business goals, designing new ways to experience space, and making education a fun activity.  I was fortunate to have many experiences working with customers and users of all ages, to understand better what people liked ad disliked about AR. Ultimately, at AstroReality, my passion for developing and creating compelling experiences was in many ways achieved.
