FounderVaultcraft / Voxela Networks, Llc. Nov 2011 - Aug 2013At the age of 12, I built and scaled the largest Minecraft server in the world for 2 years in a row. I had over half a million members, $130k+ ARR, and hundreds of community moderators/admins– all in seventh grade. VaultCraft, and the other two largest servers in the space, all had a problem– we couldn't grow to over 1,100 concurrent players online simultaneously due to hardware limitations. I saw developments with load balancer technology over at AWS and thought– what if we could do the same? So we did.No longer limited by a single machine's processing power, we were the only server able to grow from 1,100 concurrent players to 10,000 within an hour. Today, this software has been open-sourced and is referred to as "Bungeecord."

FounderFormulaonestore.Com Dec 2008 - May 2009In fifth grade, my parents bought me a Mac Mini. As a huge Formula 1 fan, one of the first things I did was search for "F1 merch." Turned out it was very difficult to buy in the U.S. So, I made "formulaonestore.com," listing like-new or better items from eBay on a simple HTML site. When an order was placed, I'd place an order on eBay and ship the item directly to the customer.
