Hey mind v2 - A mirror for the mind
2021

The current school system is facing a lot of obstacles. Many of these problems become the way for many startups who are trying to solve the failures of learning institutes.

in this post I write about our journey building a e-learning app

Side Projects

2023

Explore the mind & talk to philosophers to better understand yourself and the world around you.

2021

New side project where I build an (iOS) app that helps you explore your own mind. All current solutions are built around the idea of 'prescriptions' and self-help 'hacks', but I believe that you have to examine your own mind to learn more about yourself and the world around you.

2021

upupland is a place to explore and learn more about web3. We create a database of web3 products and interesting learning resources to learn more about the future of the internet.
