Figure it out enthusiast & obsessed with learning. I take action, jump at every opportunity, and love challenges. If I'm not qualified? I don't care—I'll figure it out!
Hey! I'm Noah 👋
Entrepreneurship is like my addiction - I want to know everything there is to it, be part of it, and lead it.
Everyone's figuring it out as they go—so why not me? I live by the quote, "The best way to predict the future is to create it." That's my mindset. Through entrepreneurship, you can build the future you want.

These are my current takes on entrepreneurship as of January 2025 with little experience, take them with a grain of salt—they'll probably change every month haha.
Startups Need Less Planning, More Building
Too many founders get stuck in analysis paralysis. The best way to learn is by shipping something real to users, even if it's not perfect.
On AI & Jobs
AI won't take your job—someone using AI better than you will.
On Risk
Everyone's perception of risk is flawed.
On Self-Made Success
Nobody is actually self-made—every successful person had unfair advantages or a little bit of luck.
On Growth
If you're not slightly embarrassed by what you built a year ago, you're not growing fast enough.
On Success
Most people want a 'blueprint for success,' but real success is just figuring things out as you go.
On VC Funding
Raising VC money isn't an achievement—it's a liability. The real flex is revenue.
On Work-Life Balance
'Work-life balance' is a lie—either you're obsessed, or you haven't found your passion yet.
On Entrepreneurship
Nobody knows what they're doing in entrepreneurship, it's all uncharted and what separates successful founders vs unsuccessful is their willingness to work in the unknown.
On Uncertainty
If you want to become a successful entrepreneur, you need to become comfortable with handling uncertainty, and making decisions without knowing what's behind the door.
