I got a lot from the Holograms 210 Gaze tutorial:
https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/holographic/holograms_210Essentially grab the gazeOrigin & gazeDirection from the GazeManager Singleton class and multiply that by a Vector 3 to offset the text to a position you are comfortable with.
The Billboard script @HoloSheep mentioned is also a good learning resource.
