He also is an advisory board member for four innovative tech start-ups and mentors students through the Rollins College Social Impact Hub.

Drawing on expertise from any one, or all three of these, allows him to deliver unique and exciting solutions to a wide variety of global clients and verticals including entertainment, consumer products, military, and much more.
A “normal” day for Brian might include exploring augmented reality, synthetic environments, blockchain, holograms, haptics, or some other exotic “sci-fi” tech that’s out there…or on the way. He is an accomplished speaker, is often interviewed on podcasts, and is available to deliver keynote addresses, lectures, workshops, or other corporate or conference presentations.
For the record, Brian earned his master’s degree in Marketing from Webster University where he was a Distinguished Graduate.
