ConNextor
I co-founded ConNextor with Elva Young and David Song during ours studies at the University of Waterloo.
The mission was to connect students from different disciplines to collaborate on projects together. Hackathons are a great platform to meet people and hack on things in a short time frame, but we found that most projects stopped progress after the hackathon. We wanted to foster collaboration for longer term projects.
ConNextor was a social platform for students to gain and track experiences by collaborating on projects together. We built a team of 7 and had an office space in downtown Waterloo.
We worked on ConNextor in parallel to our studies and internships for 2 years before sunsetting it. It was definitely one of the highlights of my university journey.
