Co-founded DisClub, a social platform designed to help people meet others with similar interests and hobbies.

The Concept

DisClub was built around a simple idea: connecting people who share passions and interests, not just romantic compatibility. Think of it as Tinder for friendships-matching users based on hobbies, goals, and what they want to build together.

Key Features

  • Interest-based matching algorithm
  • Community building tools
  • Event coordination for meetups
  • Hobby-focused user profiles

What I Learned

This was my first real venture into building a product from scratch. The experience taught me about product-market fit, user research, and the challenges of building community-driven platforms.
