"My name is Tristan Wheeler, and I’m the founder of INFINITEQUE LLC—a visionary company that bridges the worlds of games culture, technology, and community empowerment. With over two decades of experience in public service and technology, my journey reflects a deep commitment to learning, connection, and innovation.
Growing up in Cleveland, Ohio, my formative years were shaped by the city’s dynamic seasons. Summers spent outdoors and winters exploring indoor pursuits fostered a love for both hands-on experiential learning and introspective study. Immersed in gaming and its associated technologies, I built lifelong friendships and contributed to what is now known as Cleveland’s vibrant “games culture.”
I began my career at the Cleveland Public Library, where I dedicated over 20 years to roles that allowed me to blend my passions for technology, culture, and service. As a Creative Technology Engineer, I spearheaded the internationally recognized CPL PLAY program series, positioning the Library as a leader in integrating cutting-edge technologies into community programming. My contributions included event planning, professional audiovisual support, and mentorship, earning acknowledgement and accolades at local, regional, and even international levels.
Throughout my life, I’ve continuously pursued self-development and service to others. My dedication to studying languages, cultures, and faith—including a deep exploration of Islam—has inspired my commitment to fostering inclusivity and empowering underserved communities. I’ve served as a youth mentor, food bank volunteer, and board trustee at the Islamic Center of Cleveland.
As the founder of INFINITEQUE LLC, I bring together my passions for faith, people, and technology. INFINITEQUE’s mission is to improve digital equity in urban and underserved communities by leveraging games culture, innovative educational services, and social networking. We create spaces where individuals can feel a sense of belonging, develop practical skills, and connect intergenerationally through shared interests in games and technology.
I see myself as a learner, servant, and visionary. Through INFINITEQUE, I strive to inspire others to embark on their own journeys of self-discovery and growth while addressing the practical needs of communities. By harnessing the power of games culture and technology, I aim to build a more inclusive and equitable future for all."
