About Alexander Zhu
Hi, I\'m Alex! I\'m a builder and aspiring entrepreneur, and am obsessed with learning. Right now, I\'m on a journey of learning how to build products that people truly want to use; first, I\'m hoping to solve a problem I face myself: writing down thoughts and never engaging with them again. I\'ve recently launched the first prototype of String Theories, a natural language search engine and storage for thoughts, engaging users and challenging their thoughts on a daily basis.Outside of building products, I\'m also- An aspiring entrepreneur, with experience as a Founding Engineer at Mycelium, a Lead Backend Engineer at Studyfind, and a Technical Product and Sales Intern at Skillbuilder.io- A senior at Carnegie Mellon University studying Information Systems and Computer Science; I\'m extremely passionate about distributed systems and cybersecurity, and building solutions for the growing ADHD population- A software engineer with full stack experience at startups like Studyfind and Mycelium or larger companies like Roblox- A powerlifter, soccer and volleyball player, tennis trainee, aspiring photographer, violinist, and pianist.
