CHET UDELL, CEO, CO-FOUNDER invented the AirGlow and won Best Performance at the Georgia Tech Margaret Guthman Competition, the X-Prize for new Musical Instruments. After nearly failing science classes in high school and growing up in a very difficult financial situation, Chet received a music scholarship and subsequently found a path to a STEAM career and now strives to help others who are creatively inclined but neglected by the way STEAM educational opportunities are self-selecting towards students who are already poised for success. Chet now has 20 years of experience in making electronic instruments and electronic music. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Florida in Music Composition with a cognate in Electrical Engineering. He is the inventor on domestic and international patents for wireless sensor technology for musical expression, Chet is currently a professor in Biological and Ecological Engineering at Oregon State University.
