What made you decide to come to UT?

This week, TXADPR had the exciting privilege of speaking with Josh Ramirez: UT student, manager and founder of the imagine lab (UT immersive lab), and leader of the imagine lab committee with Texas Immersive, a place that allows for research and testing of new technology.
