Blockchain
TKS opened doors, taught me new mindsets, skills & ways to learn more, but also really enabled me to connect with a circle of friends I think on a similar level too as a young ambitious person.
Before TKS I had already involved myself in numerous initiatives, projects, & programs, and even co-founded a small ed-tech company, but TKS really enabled me to reach the next level and gave me a community of like-minded young people that I struggled so much to find previously, often finding myself without friends interested in similar things to myself.
I dove into web3 head first, flew out to New York City, visiting the states for the first time in my life to attend NFT NYC, a web3 conference, where I got to connect with a huge blockchain community and understand more of the ecosystem. I since launched my own NFT smart contract agency, Minthouse, which has been gaining traction, and I’ve started hiring other TKS students to join the team.
