ABOUT US
Seventh heaven - noun. a state of intense happiness; bliss. extreme happiness.
Our mission is to utilize the strength of happiness to those who need it the most -- the elderly. For bedridden patients and their families, we will be a relief to their enclosed circumstances by fulfilling their last wishes. Amongst all of our services, we will create virtual reality experiences tailored to each patient.
Monica Clarke and Mateo Parra are the Co-Founders of Seventh Heaven VR. They both graduated from the Savannah College of Art and Design with hopes to pursue extreme happiness. Being exposed to hospice, palliative care, and nursing homes, Monica and Mateo wanted to change the last chapter of life within these facilities.
Instead of a patient staring at the foot of their bed, the walls of their room, or outside their window, Seventh Heaven would bring the patient where they have longed to go.
THE PEOPLE BEHIND SEVENTH HEAVEN
MATEO PARRA
CO-FOUNDER
TECHNICAL DIRECTOR
I believe happiness has the power to change anything and having the ability to use virtual reality to do just this, was a huge game-changer for me. Now I can bring happiness to people that need it most and know that I'm making a huge impact on their lives.
MONICA CLARKE
CO-FOUNDER
PUBLIC RELATIONS
We’ve seen the evolution of story-telling through writing, typing to motion pictures. Now we can share the emotion and comfort through VR. The want or wish of a loved one won’t be the longing should’ve/could’ve. We can show them through VR, give to them, and expand the walls to their imagination.
