Many hustlers may not know me, and many gurus haven't heard about me "yet". I am Muhammad Taimoor Hassan, 21 years old entrepreneur, Microsoft Imagine Cup 2021 National Winner & World Finalist, working on many startups & side-projects since the age of 12. The Ups & downs of the industry have gradually made me grow & polish myself.
I have a longer-run plan to achieve $100k in 1.5 year In the last 6 months, I have created 6 side projects & sold 4, adding approx $20K to my name, side by side documenting my journey on Twitter. Working on many projects side by side.
