Short Answer Questions
Describe something you have built recently.
What have I built recently... well if you're talking about an actual, physical item probably the most challenging thing I have constructed would be a protein model for Science Olympiad; I didn't really know what I was doing entirely but ended up with 2nd place. I've been doing some woodworking so I guess a table and some bowls count as well. Mentally, I have been building and plotting a couple of different ideas for startups, and that is why I am here.
Why do you want to work on a startup or side project?
I have a strong interest in foreign languages. Coming from a relatively small school, it is difficult to study more than one language let alone a "rare" one (such as Arabic or Russian). Existing language courses are very costly and many people do not have the funds to access these programs. It would be nice to actually revolutionize language learning where students learn from videos at home, and actually put these skills to use in the classroom.
Anything else you'd like to mention about yourself?
I am a high school student in a rural area. I think I have some decent ideas and in order to be successful, I need to surround myself with the right people to help get these ideas off the ground.
