Kyle is a gamer, streamer, and a VR Metaverse Web3 expert. He is currently the Co-Founder and CEO of The Net VR. He has a Bachelor of Science degree from Oregon State University, focusing on engineering and business.

Kyle's first stint in VR dates back to the launch of the Nintendo Virtual Boy in 1995. He has been passionate about gaming ever since. Another passion of his is continually striving to be a positive leader, so it is only fitting he has become such a growing gaming company.

Making the decision to join the VR space was a great risk, especially because he came from a totally different industry. He had to juggle with other giants whose business DNA was rooted in the tech industry. The success he has achieved with Net VR outweighs all the struggles he had to go through. 

He continues to bridge his dreams and aspirations while advancing useful technology to connect people. Kyle believes technology has the power to alter society greatly, and he hopes to be able to build a morally strong, positive, focused company. The Net VR is reinventing Virtual Reality in the wake of the MetaVerse. The company is focused on bringing 3D space to all display devices.

Colleen Gallagher is an Intuitive Business Consultant, cancer survivor, podcast host, global citizen, published author of books, educator, social media guide, and passionate about empowering people to gain clarity on their purpose. 

Colleen created a life filled with subconscious anger and guilt and a persistent sense of unworthiness after being diagnosed with cancer at age 14 because it allowed her to blame the world for her unhappiness. Yet, at age 23, she had enough. She wanted to figure out how to live the life she truly desired, turn cancer into a gift, and discover why she was here. 

She quit her job, moved across the world to New Zealand, and healed herself with love. This experience—and the new openness it ushered in—revealed to her that many people live every day in subconscious negativity, which holds them back from their true and unlimited potential. 

Her most tremendous success is seeing her clients become empowered to create lifestyles that transform their lives and change the world. Colleen offers this experience through online courses, retreats, products, and social media content. People can deepen their spiritual practices, understand the power of expression to attract opportunities, and take deliberate action toward growing a sustainable impact.

In 2016, while in London as a marketing director, Matthew had to make a very important decision affecting his country of residence. The unfortunate societal climate in England at the time led many people to leave their country, and the liberal nature of Great Britain made it easy for people to do so. 

He witnessed two men discussing how they thought immigrants in the UK negatively impacted society. Many negative views of immigrants came from social media and during political campaigns. They raised their concern that the government should kick out all immigrants who brought Britain down and didn't contribute to society. Leaving such a toxic environment is a decision that any successful person must make.
