Project Nimbus
During a summer internship at Microsoft, I conceived of "Nimbus", a live-streaming, crowd-controlled high-altitude balloon. I recruited and led a team of more than 20 fellow Microsoft interns to bring the idea to life, culminating in a social flight experience—think Twitch Plays Pokémon from the edge of space—that connected participants from around the world.
