Cultivating a career path can be described as a dynamic, adventurous, and deeply personal experience. As a human collective of cognitive thinkers, roaming the Earth in search of new answers to every question ever posed – understanding ambition is a crucial element to living a satisfied existence. Personal ambition ignites like a flame of desire inextinguishable by any force, adamant about being made a reality.
Alix Lu is the modern day symbol of dedication and relentless pursuit, unwavering in her march towards fulfilling her career aspirations. As a former NASA associate and multidisciplinary artist, Alix’s view of the world is holographic and multi-dimensional. The model, philanthropist, and girl-genius takes the holistic route towards career fulfillment – motivated by her innate curiosity of all that is and what will one day, cease to be.
When Alix began to construct the framework of her professional life, she was an art student composing alternate realities through sculpture and cinematic digital renderings. From early on, her muses for creative projects were rooted in eclectic mediums – ranging from demonstrations of high fashion, space exploration, and the speed of hypersonic sound waves. In her free time, Alix studied the historic relevance of the runway, fascinated by the rich depth of fashion – bringing to her art studio ideas based upon beauty in motion.
As Alix’s coursework of Design Media Arts evolved, her ingenious projects were featured at exhibitions and gallery showings in the beloved Arts District of Los Angeles. The industrial history of the Arts District was a playground for Alix’s mind to run rampant, given that this sector of Los Angeles was reputable for undergoing constant changes in architecture. ,“When an industrial space in the Arts District closed down for renovation, I considered that to be an ending point of sorts,” expressed Alix ,“But, what would begin after the renovation was yet another starting point. I would think of all of the artists who were yet to feature their artwork in the newly renovated spaces being built. Nobody knows how, or when, they are going to make their mark on history.”
Though Alix felt honored to see her orbital-sculptures on view at several gallery showings, the trajectory of her dreams were beginning to shift. ,“There were nights where I dug through astronomy textbooks searching for inspiration in the vast unknown,” shared Alix ,“I had always been drawn to the infinite mileage of stars hovering above us – residing in that magical place we know as space. I wanted a new understanding of the world, and I wanted to witness the world in a way that was energetic.”
After graduating with her degree in Design Media, Alix secured an internship at NASA. ,“I felt that my artistic work had been influenced by the splendor of space; since my earliest memories as a child, space exploration deeply interested me,” revealed Alix, “I wanted to demonstrate my fascination with the mystical framework of space – I wanted to learn what defies the laws of gravity, and see it up close.” It was at NASA where Alix became an apprentice to all the intricacies involved in the development, and scientific operation, of a U.S. spacecraft. Alix, leveraging her artistic talents, recalls creating visualizations of radioisotope thermoelectric generators – the fuel source for unmanned spacecraft. ,“I wanted my efforts to inspire the next generation of scientists.”
Though she now lives as a globally recognized model, appearing in acclaimed publications such as L’Officiel Monaco ; Alix is a dedicated member of Artificial Intelligence company, Opaliris. Opaliris, founded in 2022, is an AI startup focused on delivering state-of-the art, virtual makeup try on technology. Alix currently digitally engineers interactive demo videos for Opaliris, showcasing the organization’s approach to the mastery of their product, engaging new investor relations. With unprecedented accuracy, the brilliant software developers and machine learning engineers at Opaliris have created a generative AI model that simulates the airbrush quality of makeup products. The company is currently developing an original AI model that outperforms existing VTO solutions – having now raised millions of dollars in funding as a result of demo’s masterfully crafted by Alix Lu. The powerful thinker is set to serve as the public face of the company’s marketing campaign as they prepare for their public launch this year.
