I was honored to speak at Innovation Academy's Raspberry Pi Hackathon day. Here are a few highlights from my presentation.

In this video, I discuss:
- Why Raspberry Pi? - Cool Projects

- Things I was told about myself in high school
- I was told that "I couldn't dance." - I auditioned and danced in the SuperBowl XXXIV Pregame show
- I was told that "I wasn't athletic." - I won a gold medal for Team USA - 8K Cross Country 2019
- My first Raspberry Pi Project (Making an Alexa from a Raspberry Pi) took 5 days with help from others

- Lessons Learned:
- Don't let others define you
- Finish what you start
- Be Unapologetically Yourself
