First, a bit about me:
I’m 30 years old. I’ve founded a startup backed by YCombinator and, more recently, worked as a Sr Product Manager at a tech company in San Francisco.
Last December and January I had to go on medical leave for a series of brain surgeries. After a longer-than-expected recovery, I wasn’t unable to return.
Now I’m almost 100% and am scratching the itch to start something new - this time as a solo, bootstrapped founder.
The idea
I stumbled upon this tweet from Sam Parr, founder of The Hustle, a couple weeks ago. It got me thinking:
I’ve always had great personal relationships at work. It’s made work more fun and productive. So this is a problem I feel excited about solving.
As a solo founder, I need some accountability and feedback
So I’ll be writing about my journey in a weekly newsletter called The MVP Sprint. Check out my first article here where I dive into how I spot problems worth solving. My next step is to research the users and market and then work to validate the problem before I build anything.
I’d love to hear any feedback on the idea!
