Lameck Lukanga
MBA '09, BBA '08 | Founder, Life Line Financial Group
The impact you have in the world is not measured by power, prestige or money, but the number of lives that were better because you lived,” he said. Perhaps not what anyone expected to hear from the founder of one of the top financial management firms in the country. No, these were the words of a Lobo. One who escaped unspeakable conditions in his home country of Uganda, came here, and found support, a new home and true success.

Nate Gutierrez
Junior | BA Media Arts
He’s been using the latest visual arts technology in our ARTS Lab, and working with teams in our Fabrication Lab, to help create dynamic projection displays in and around town. He’s just starting out, but he already knows his stuff. Which is why the City of Albuquerque sent him with a team to SXSW this year to help showcase the city’s entrepreneurial spirit.

Laura Boykin
Ph.D. '03 | Computational Biologist
She uses supercomputers to study the diversity, development and gene structures of organisms. Like the whitefly. A devastating pest that’s been destroying critical cassava crops in East Africa. By creating the world’s first database of whitefly genetic information, she’s helping other researchers find a way to eradicate this pest and restore food security to over seven million people in the region.
