At StudentsBoat, I co-founded a startup to assist students, particularly international students, in connecting with each other when they come to a new country or city. Our platform, StudentsBoat.com, creates a marketplace for shared accommodation, allowing students to rent rooms or beds with host families or other students who have apartments. I participated in the Everyday Entrepreneurship (EE) competition at the Center for Entrepreneurship at Portland State University (PSU) and won the 3rd prize. Additionally, I joined the 45Camp pre-accelerator program sponsored by VertueLab, where we graduated with valuable experience and a support award. Our slogan, "feel at home wherever you roam," encapsulates our mission to make students feel at home no matter where they are.

At LookLike, I co-founded and served as an innovative social media startup's Chief Operating Officer (COO). Our platform is designed to connect individuals globally who do not know each other based on three criteria: physical resemblance, personality traits, and shared interests. We created three distinct communities within the application: one for face look-alikes, another for personality matches, and a third for connecting with those with similar interests. Our idea was based on and focused on curiosity, encouraging users to explore and discover connections in unique and meaningful ways. I led the operational strategies and oversaw the development of user-centric features, ensuring a seamless and engaging experience for our users and fostering meaningful connections worldwide.
