Karl Eshwer vlogƵ21 has worn many hats since he arrived at Pace. HevlogƵs the president of both the Alpha Lambda Delta National Honors Society and Pace Computing Society, worked as an Orientation Leader last summer, and even participated in the NYC Design Factory and Mock Trial. vlogƵHolding these positions allowed me to seek out connections and make a meaningful impact on how my peers viewed and responded to their experiences on campus,vlogƵ Karl explained. vlogƵBeing in a position to provide this value to the next generation of the Pace Community brings me fulfillment of the highest magnitude and is my ultimate motivation!vlogƵ
ItvlogƵs no wonder he was inspired by a great leader and motivated mind when deciding to major in computer science with a minor in economics. vlogƵSeeing the heights [Elon] Musk has been achieving over the past decade (no pun intended) has had a sizable impact on me steering down this path,vlogƵ he told us. As for the economics side of it, the choice seemed only natural to Karl. vlogƵIn the current landscape of technological innovation, the economics behind any proposed solution has a profound effect on the introduction and eventual growth of the technology,vlogƵ he said. vlogƵI found it imperative to have a reasonable understanding of the field.vlogƵ
Of all his Pace experiences, though, Karl pointed to his participation in Mock Trial as vlogƵone of the crowning jewelsvlogƵ that really had a profound effect on himvlogƵand even solidified his decision to come to Pace in the first place. vlogƵI felt like there was one element missing during the transition and I wasnvlogƵt particularly able to point my finger at it,vlogƵ Karl said of his first year on campus. That is, until he auditioned for Mock Trial. vlogƵ[I] realized that was what was missing: a team.vlogƵ
Familiarizing himself with all the legal jargon was vlogƵan uphill battle,vlogƵ he continued, but ultimately well worth the effort. vlogƵNow that [IvlogƵm] familiar with Mock TrialvlogƵs many facets, I have come to enjoy it much more from a professional standpoint.vlogƵ
Currently, Karl is working as a product manager for uSTADIUM, a centralized platform for sports fans the world over. vlogƵHaving mainly worked on the product aspect of the platform, I am most proud of it for the paradigm it is trying to shift in the sports market as well as for the progress the team has made in terms of technology and growth,vlogƵ Karl explained. Talk about serious dedication to innovation!
WevlogƵre thrilled to see what Karl comes up with next, and especially, what his newest project will innovate as he moves forward in his career.
