Operations Lead, Immersive Design Center
I manage operations for a team that drives innovation through advanced visualization technology.
I come into work and get ready for any events or engagements that we have going on that day. Most of my time is spent running events and meetings for clients at the center. I make sure the center keeps running smoothly. That can mean talking to vendors to get gear or making sure the gear we have is being installed. In general, I do anything that's related to keeping the center running functionally.
Here's the first step for everyone
Seek out mentors. Don't be afraid to reach out to anybody that you think you can gain some value from. People love helping others, so it's virtually guaranteed that they'll say yes if you reach out for guidance. All of the value that you can gain from others in various positions will ultimately help you get to where you're wanting to be in your career.
