Voldeng was CEO and founder of entertainment technology company Sugarlab Corp., and entertainment technology forecasting, analysis, and research lab UMI/Digital Mogul. She started her first company when she was just shy of her teens.

Voldeng cut her teeth in advanced telecommunications in the early 1990s, beginning her career in development with a company acquired by HP’s Test and Measurement division. She built her first technology when she was 11 (a surround sound speaker system for her bedroom), wrote her first screenplay when she was also 11 (an unabashedly cheesy Star Wars holiday special), and designed and deployed her first immersive experience at 9 (a haunted forest that neighborhood kids paid 25 cents each to… immersively experience).
Voldeng was named one of the Top 10 “21st Century Media Thinkers” by Nikkei Electronics, one of the “Top 25 Women in Technology” by ZDnet/SFWOW and one of the “Women to Know in New Media” by the Online Journalism Review.
