"Leveling up productivity and habits for young adults through AI"
I started building because I was frustrated by how many people, including myself, knew what they should be doing but struggled to consistently follow through. Over the past few years, I've built websites, experimented with AI tools, started small projects, and spent a lot of time learning about startups, business, and personal growth. Eventually, I stopped waiting to feel 'ready' and began building RRise to solve a problem I experienced every day.

Top Advice
"Start before you feel ready. Most people spend years consuming content about startups, productivity, or entrepreneurship without ever building anything. You learn more from launching one imperfect project than from reading a hundred business books."
Wish I Knew Earlier
"The biggest challenge has been building credibility. As a Year 9 student, many people assume I'm too young to build something meaningful before they've seen my work."
