Apple?

Technically, there was two years in there where I worked for a Halloween company.

Like costumes?

Yes, costumes.

Okay.

That feels a little bit like a pivot.

I think you can say that.

From NASA, from NASA engineer to making Halloween costumes.

Brief hiatus in between NASA and Apple.

It was like an entrepreneurial thing because my first video ever was a Halloween costume where an iPad on front, an iPad in back of me.

You like cut a hole in the shirt.

And it looks like you have a hole in your body if you do a FaceTime call because the FaceTime camera pointing forward will record the hand and it shows it on the back.

And it went really viral.

That was my first ever video.

And I was like, dang, I have more ideas than this.

So I basically done one video a month since then.

But part of that where people like cool idea, bro, but I don't have $1,200 for Halloween costume.

So the next year I was like, oh, we just had a design on the shirt.

Let's say it was like some guy's scary guy looking eye.

And then I made a free app that had an eyeball that I filmed that was moving around.
