While learning animation and philosophy at Sam Houston University, he embarked on an entrepreneurial venture when he founded a small business dedicated to game-system repair.

This paved the way for his career as an IT project manager at Hewlett Packard,
with subsequent roles at esteemed companies such as SpireTek, Foxconn, Expeditors and Bartec US, where he seamlessly blended IT expertise with project management.
