Who is Weng
I've always dreamed of creating that million-dollar app idea. I've developed apps for clients and pursued personal projects across various programming languages and tech ecosystems. I have a passion for 3D modeling, game development, and AI, all while having a previous career in healthcare. My interests are wide-ranging, which I believe might lead me to uncover a unique niche in the market. These are notes along my journey of entrepreneurship, and hopefully they will inspire me with ideas later down the road. If you're developing a tech venture and want to chat about it, please don't hesitate to reach out.
If you know how to use Github, you can contribute to notes at Weng's Business Brain.
