Congratulations, it sounds like you’re able to recognize the need for a product, and are on your way to a successful future. At age 13, I was only mastering StarCraft enough to not be embarrassed by my friends.

Can you talk about how much of your journey was on your own initiative, and how much of it was supported by the adults in your life?

How have you found balance in running two startups, while also engaging in “normal” preteen/teenage activities that support social skills in adulthood?

My parents bought me a computer at 11. They only know I do websites, its my own initiative I saw there was a need to get around school filters and play games at school and thought it would be fun to try.

I haven't had to update ShuttleProxy in 6 months and don't really work to promote it or buy new domains when old ones get blocked. I'm in the process of selling it.

All my friends my age are kids also develop websites and we are all discord friends.

13? wow!
