About Lewis

I inherited my love for all things tech and gaming at a young age. I remember watching my father boot up our DIY family computer into dos mode to play DOOM and I\'d spend hours watching him, wanting to understand more about how any of this sorcery was possible. On weekends I\'d tag along to Circuit City and CompUSA with him with no goal in mind other than to see what was new in the world of Tech. I was hooked instantly and he was happy to feed that curiosity and encourage me to pursue it. A few long car rides catching Pokemon later, and I found myself deeply immersed in the tech world working for the companies I admired growing up. Household names like Best Buy and Apple, where I learned about framerates and pixels, processors and gigabytes. Also, about sharing that passion for technology. I spoke fondly of the experiences I had working for Apple so much so that my sister and younger cousin found themselves working there. And when I started my career with Creative Artists Agency my brother, a Mac desktop engineer at our competitor William Morris Endeavor, messaged me jokingly proclaiming \"you\'re the enemy now!\" our love for tinkering and gaming landing us tech roles at competing companies. I have been lucky enough to work in a space I am passionate about and my hope is to continue growing and finding opportunities that will challenge me. Technology has given me the tools needed to be a better version of myself everyday and I would love to bring my talents and perspective to a team looking to foster a positive change in those who play a part in it.
