    Thomas Suarez: XR Apps, Learning to Code, and Spatial Computing

    What happens when you learn to code? In this episode of In the Making, Zain Raza interviews Thomas Suarez, the passionately driven cofounder and CTO of Teleportal, a startup paving the way for developers to make immersive AR/VR apps like never before. Listen to this episode to get Tom's thoughts on the different forms of education. In this interview I was blown away at Tom's wide breadth of experience, spanning from teaching himself to code at age 7, all the way up to Georgia Tech, where he spent his first term pulling all-nighters just to work both on his CS classes as well as his startup.

    First Impression of San Francisco: The UPStarts Podcast

    If you are looking for an honest answer for your problems, I believe you need to begin by looking in the mirror.Everywhere I look, the epicenter of all my problems is myself. "I have met the enemy, and he is I," once said Alexander the Great, and I truly believe he was on to something. Whether in Massachusetts or my new college dorm in California, I am going to try and be grateful for the people around me, and I believe it my responsibility to improve myself before I ask anything of them. In this episode I talk about my recent move to San Francisco for college, to study at the innovative computer science college known as Make School. I go over my thoughts of home, my first impressions of the city, including the conversations I've been having with my classmates!

    Opportunity All Around You (feat. André Williams): The UPStarts Podcast

    Have you ever wondered what it takes to learn to code? André Williams never did, at least not until fate intervened. In this episode Williams shares his remarkable story: from overcoming an injury that ended his dreams of becoming a professional soccer player; to cofounding the vegan tech startup Acumeal during high school; then representing the state of Texas in the House of Representatives, while he pitched his mobile app Ending Intelligence; and beyond with Williams' aspirations to contribute to the growing A.I. field, in Make School's accelerated Bachelor's degree program in Applied Computer Science. It was a joy to pick Williams' brain about self-guided learning (among other things), and I hope you get a lot out of this episode!
