About Connor
Bio
I studied game design for 6 years (4 in high school, 2 in college) leading into college at East Carolina, where I played Division 1 football as a walk-on offensive lineman. I became a highly sought-after creative talent in the Art & Design college, causing me to focus on my studies and leave football behind. I lost 70 lbs, graduated, and pursued a filmmaking career in Atlanta, which taught me how to study human behavior and work as a multi-faceted leader through chaotic situations. One day I discovered a solution to a large market gap in the gaming world, which led to the discovery of many other solutions in other sectors. This ultimately led to discovering my invention "Cybercivic Infrastructure". I set my promising film career to the side after concluding that creativity used for problem-solving was more fulfilling and impactful than using it for entertainment. Now I've dedicated my life to bringing Cybercivic Infrastructure to the world through my startup Agonos.
