Wisdom From The Women Leading The VR, AR & Mixed Reality Industries, With Sarah Socia of OVR Technology
“When I graduated college, I wasn’t looking for a job let alone a career in the X Reality Industry. In the beginning, I was ideally looking for something that mixed creativity, science, and healthcare outcomes where each day was not a carbon copy of the last. However, most people I knew graduating with a neuroscience degree were following the more traditional paths of laboratory research in academia, graduate school, or medical school. Less traditional paths weren’t well paved. So, when I first learned about OVR Technology and how they are incorporating olfaction into virtual reality for better real-world outcomes, I felt like I stumbled upon this unique magical opportunity.”
Our Vice President of Scentware at OVR Technology, Sarah Socia, was interviewed by Fotis Georgiadis of Authority Magazine for their ‘Wisdom From The Women Leading The VR, AR & Mixed Reality Industries’ series. In the interview, they discuss Sarah’s background in neuroscience, why she chose OVR Technology, projects she’s excited about, the applications of VR, and women in STEM!
