Paul Kirby (MBA 1978) spent nine years building Dulcinea, a robot that, through Kirby’s iterative encoding, creates original works of art. Then an encounter with Kirby, Dulcinea, and a group of at-risk students sparked an a-ha moment: “I realized I wanted to give back and share what I’d done to excite and inspire others to pursue their own dreams.” He started the Kirby Foundation and formalized his approach of crafting a unified path from multiple passions, resulting in the FUSE methodology (find, upgrade, start, evolve).
