By the age of 16 George had found his passion, combining social justice and technology. George then decided to start a tech company at 16 years old, in hopes to help other kids of color gain entry into the world of technology as innovators not just consumers. 

Since then George has developed a mix of mobile apps and web-platforms, lectured at multiple universities, worked with Colin Kaepernick, Oakland mayor Libby Schaaf, and Megan Smith, the ex-United States chief technology officer and assistant to President Obama.
