He is the oldest of 3 siblings, and currently he is making a startup that will provide investment software for people wanting to invest in real estate.

He is proud of where he comes from, and it is a great honor to uplift and support the people who look like him in any community he is a part of.

Hudson’s post-Virginia tech aspiration is to work for a Big Tech Company (Apple, Google, Microsoft, JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs etc.). His goal is to be the CEO of his own startup company, and he wants to be able to develop it to becoming a multinational corporation so he can spread his impact globally.
