I believe side projects are the most important and impactful things to spend your times on as a student or new grad. A few benefits I've experienced: - 100x improved technical skills that I never would have learned in class - Build personal brand in an industry - Explore venture scalable and non-scalable ideas - Lots of interest from investors, large partners, and other interested stakeholders within that project scope A few side projects I've built in the past: - NBA GPT: Sports analytics tool, powered by LLMs (partnering with NBA teams to launch for next season), https://www.nba-gpt.com - Carpus: Wrist based EMG wearable to control 3rd party computer interfaces - Open Source Terminal: Web based tool to compare open source projects on GitHub - Cities: Early stroke detection wearable to quantify Pronator Drift I'll provide you with ongoing support with your side projects whether you're just starting to think about an idea to pursue or already building and looking to scale. What we can discuss: - Brainstorm ideas that align with your goals (explore an industry, start a company, build something for fun) - Get started with developing the project (regardless of how technical you are) - Go to market strategy to get distribution once you finish building - Anything else on your mind (as you already know or will see, the challenges you face while working on your own project are far different than the challenges in school)
