Visionary is important to Mayaguez and Puerto Rico because it is not afraid to work with and empower others with brand new technologies. Visionary hosted the first ever VR Hackathon in Puerto Rico causing a huge wave that was felt across the island. People that had never coded or touched a VR headset were able to create a VR experiece in less than 12 hours. VR/AR/MR are very versatile tools that have an overwhelming amount of applications. To take advantage of the technology and ride the wave, one must be Visionary!

If we take a moment to stand in the middle of the educational process of a student these days and we dive into the core of the student experience we would see that there is a profound interest in the development and inclusion of learning elements that are personalized. Educational Elements that are developed depending on the students’ needs and educational interests. This interest has become a movement, a strong movement that is revolutionizing the way schools and universities are looking at their curriculums and courses. Within this great and inspiring Movement makerspace have become a crucial and key piece within the playing board.
Alejandro’s work vision is to continue promoting the student enthusiasm and motivation and guide it to not only develop the new areas of work within the makerspace, but more importantly to show that a group of motivated and perseverant student can actually help build the university of tomorrow. His hopes are that this will transform into a program where students are trained as community leaders within the campus where they will be able to identify misused spaces with great potential and transform them into signature makerspaces focused on different areas of high impact (agriculture, art, educational pedagogy, other areas of STEM, etc) which will help the innovation and entrepreneurship in our community grow and help students in ways never imagined.
