NEW EPISODE: Nick Adelizi | Foothills Under 30

What happens when someone leaves a mountain town, gains experience in the tech world, and then decides to bring those skills back home?

In Episode 3 of Foothills Under 30, we sit down with Nicholas Adelizi, co-founder of AXG 3D Technologies, at his office at Yosemite Gateway Art Center to talk about technology, entrepreneurship, 3D printing, problem-solving, and building opportunities right here in the Yosemite Foothills.

Nick shares his journey from studying computer science and working in technology to helping local businesses and community members navigate an increasingly digital world.

This conversation is about more than technology, it's about choosing to invest in your community, creating opportunities where you live, and proving that innovation can happen in small towns too.
