I came to this forum looking to network with other people with the same interest and goals, and to learn from those who have achieved theirs. I currently live in San Diego, and would love to be able to meet people within the area as well.
I am 26, married, and am adjusting to a new baby boy. I am a Computer Engineer by education and profession. Having worked in the corporate world for a few years, it finally dawned on me this wasn't going to get me to where I wanted to be, nor provide the life I wanted for myself and my family. That is my main motivation: to have enough financial freedom to do whatever really interests me, and to give my family the same opportunity.
I have always enjoyed technology, and therefore gravitated towards programming and software. My skills involve both web (HTML, PHP, Javascript) and desktop (VC#, VC++, etc) applications programming. I've worked with many programming languages and can usually pick a new one up quite quickly.
I've tried my hand at a few online projects (affiliate marketing, blogging) and had a number of product ideas, but nothing has been too succesful. I feel my weakness comes after the excitement of starting a new project has died down; I can't seem to keep motivated enough to just push through until the end. I'm thinking a mastermind group, or partners that can hold me accountable, can help me in this aspect. Though I don't have as much time for these projects as I'd like, I try to find a good balance between my day job, family, and business ideas so that not one suffers.
Some of my other interests include sports (basketball and MMA), video games (sparingly), spending time with my family, and tv/movies.
I look forward to making some friends and hopefully some partners as well.
