I've been building apps for 13 years, and learned something interesting: people want meaningful connections, not attention traps.

Now I'm exploring how AI can help with this.

What I'm Working On
Pre-seed / Co-founder (full-time) with prototypes
"What if apps could ask the right questions at the right time, like a good friend would?"
After seeing couples meet through stories (not swipes) on miniDot, I started wondering about this possibility.Since October 2024, I've been building AI prototypes to explore this idea:
• Personality insights through conversational AI• Mood visualization with adaptive interfaces• Playful discovery mechanisms for authentic connection
The goal isn't engagement optimization, it's authentic human connection enhanced by AI that actually understands context.
