TUMO announced that Rev Lebaredian, Vice President of Omniverse and Simulation Technology at NVIDIA, has joined its Board of Directors.
An active member of TUMO’s advisory board since 2018, Lebaredian has played a key role in guiding the executive team on technology, strategy, and educational content development.
“Rev is deepening his commitment to TUMO's mission, helping oversee our ambitious expansion trajectory and the integration of AI into our learning content and software,” TUMO said in a statement on Facebook.
“There is nothing like TUMO anywhere,” said Rev, "It enriches young minds so that they’re ready for this new world – to build technologies and be creative in a joyful way, not just as something you have to do to live, but something you enjoy and through which you give back to the world.“
TUMO is a free, after-school program where teens build skills at the intersection of technology and design through self-learning activities, workshops, and project-based labs. Founded in Armenia in 2011, TUMO has since expanded globally.
“I saw TUMO graduates as interns who work at places like NVIDIA, and I realized that this is essentially the factory that will produce the brains companies like NVIDIA will benefit from," Lebaredian added.
