Welcome! I'm excited to share the innovative projects that I'm currently working on, alongside my friend & business partner, Matan Rieger, as well as Luna, Alexander Lee, and Ruby Sinder. Together, we are committed to developing a range of entrepreneurial ventures and large projects that combine our passion for entrepreneurship, technology, 3D modeling, and various other topics. Below is an overview of our ongoing and future projects, including the development of a cutting-edge question-and-answer (Q&A) site, a to-scale Hogwarts recreation for Harry Potter fans to visit, and a set of “Backrooms”-related projects.
Stay tuned for updates as we continue to bring these ventures to life!
Current Projects:
Overview:
- Mayvene: A Q&A (question-and-answer) site being designed to improve knowledge-sharing in a more structured and community-driven way.
- Fiction2Reality: Fiction2Reality (F2R) is a creative project transforming fictional worlds into real, explorable spaces, starting with a digital stage, creating 3D-rendered models and videos, and ultimately building large-scale physical environments like Hogwarts and the Backrooms. The goal of F2R is to let people step inside the worlds they've only read about or seen on screen, turning imagination into reality.
In-depth:
Q&A site:
We are in the early stages of developing an innovative question-and-answer (Q&A) platform. Our mission is, "Spreading knowledge, life experiences, and gaining a better understanding of the universe around us". Our goal is to create a space where users can ask and answer questions. And especially with the rise of AI chatbots nowadays, it's important to have a site like this run by real people, because AI cannot foster a community of shared knowledge, expertise, and different perspectives like real people can, and AI is often prone to hallucination. And we also will have helpful features, utilize techniques to mitigate trolls and spam, and deploy non-paywall nor heavily ad-reliant site revenue techniques to help keep the site alive.
Fiction2Reality (F2R):
Fiction2Reality (F2R) is a creative project transforming fictional worlds into real, explorable spaces, starting with a digital stage, creating 3D-rendered models and videos, and ultimately building large-scale physical environments like Hogwarts and the Backrooms. The goal of F2R is to let people step inside the worlds they've only read about or seen on screen, turning imagination into reality.
In places Harry Potter World at Universal Studios, visitors can only see limited sections, just the outside and a few decorated rooms, and then there's a ride inside. But F2R envisions something far more immersive: a full, to-scale Hogwarts castle that people can actually explore. Imagine walking through the Great Hall, the Chamber of Secrets, the Room of Requirement, the spiral staircase to the Headmaster's office, or even the witch statue passage to Hogsmeade. Every corridor, secret room, and magical detail—moving stairs, talking portraits, hidden kitchens—would be brought to life as a fully explorable experience.
At the same time, F2R also draws inspiration from The Backrooms, a fascinating fictional world that began with one image, and has since evolved into countless YouTube videos, video games, and stories. These surreal "liminal spaces" have captured people's imaginations worldwide. F2R aims to eventually create a "Backrooms/liminal space" building attraction where visitors can wander and explore, as one part of the project.
Fiction2Reality begins with digital creations: crafting virtual 3D renders, short films, and animated experiences that serve as proofs of concept. As the project builds traction and community support through online platforms and storytelling, F2R plans to evolve into the real-world builds, transforming fictional worlds into physical spaces you can truly step inside.

Paused Projects
Projects that are in development but on pause for now as we focus on other initiatives.
- YEAN: The Young Entrepreneurs and Aspirers Network (YEAN) is meant to be a professional network for highly motivated young individuals. We focused on inclusivity and supporting members in their entrepreneurial endeavors and personal growth. Our mission was to build a community of 'young people' that balances professionalism and friendship, enabling members to connect, collaborate, and succeed together.
- Video game series: We are planning a two-part video game series, currently in the conceptual stages. This will end up being our first “video game”-related venture, in which we are hoping to create fun, engaging, and immersive gaming experience.
Clubs & Campus Leadership
I'm currently a student at Muhlenberg College, where the campus has a vibrant student life with a variety of clubs (known as “Student Organizations”, all run by students). I've had the opportunity to start two of my own clubs, 'co-revive' another, serve on the board of one, and be an active member in several others. Below, I'll be sharing my involvement and leadership roles across these campus organizations.
Stay tuned for more updates as I continue to contribute to and energize these student organizations!
The 'Berg Pokémon Club:
I founded and currently am the President of/run the Muhlenberg Pokémon Club, also referred to as the 'Berg Pokémon Club, or simply, just the "Pokémon Club" (in the context of Muhlenberg). I formally and officially established the club through a bureaucratic application/presentation process through the college's Student Government Association. I, along with the club's board, organize in-person meetings, for, and about, Pokémon, where we engage in all aspects of the franchise, including the Pokémon video games, the Trading Card Game (TCG), Pokémon Go, Pokémon Showdown, and we even have the original Pokémon board game from the '90s, "Pokémon: Master Trainer", and more.
The 'Berg Harry Potter Club:
I founded and currently am the President of/run the Muhlenberg Harry Potter Club, also referred to as the 'Berg Harry Potter Club, or simply, just the "Harry Potter Club"/"HP Club" (in context of Muhlenberg). I formally established the club through an application/presentation process. I, along with the club's board, organize in-person meetings, for, and about, Harry Potter. The club is meant for anyone & everyone, ranging from people who know little about the series and would like to learn, to the best Aurors and dark wizards looking to connect with other Potterheads.
The 'Berg Fencing Club:
I 'co-revived' and run/am the President of the 'Berg Fencing Club on campus. The Fencing Club at Muhlenberg has been around for a long time, but after the 2022-2023 academic year, the club's President was a senior and graduated, and nobody took it over, so it wasn't around for a semester. So in the second semester of the 2023-2024 academic year, another fellow student/friend of mine, Ryan Steremberg, and I 'co-revived' the club; we brought it back, and re-established it.
In the past, Co-Coach Paul McAndrew would come in to help teach, and the then-President & current Co-Coach, Noah Katz (now a Muhlenberg alum, Class of 2023), would also teach those wanting to learn to fence. Ryan reached out to them both near the beginning of the second semester of the 2023-2024 academic year, and both now come to the Fencing Club again to teach those who want to learn.
For the Fencing Club, we provide the gear (owned by the club/the college), and we teach fencing, starting with the basics. So, no equipment or experience is needed in order to join the club. It is a low-stakes, high-fun way to learn how to fence, and to fence with others!
MBGA (Muhlenberg Board Game Association):
I didn't start (or “revive”) the MBGA. But I am the Secretary of the club, so I help with the club's social media and communications, and aid in anything that the President of the club thinks should be done. Board games are provided, and members can also bring their own. The club meets weekly.
MAC (Muhlenberg Activities Council):
The Muhlenberg Activities Council (MAC) is responsible for planning and organizing a wide variety of campus-wide events throughout the year. From social gatherings to performances, MAC strives to provide fun and engaging activities that bring the Muhlenberg community together. We work to create memorable experiences for fellow students, whether it's hosting themed parties, a trivia or bingo night, movie nights, or other major events that enhance student life.
Other clubs I'm involved with:
The Israeli Dance Troupe:
Muhlenberg's Israeli Dance Troupe, “Lehakat Me'hatchala”/“להקת מהתחלה”, is a group dedicated to learning and performing newly-choreographed dances to Israeli music. Every year, we learn a new dance, which culminates in a performance at the Boston Israeli Folkdance Festival, DC's Israeli Folkdance Festival, and/or Manhattan's Israeli Folkdance Festival.
Wall Street Club:
Muhlenberg's Wall Street Club is a student-led organization focused on learning about the financial markets, investment strategies, and career opportunities in the finance industry. Through discussions and guest speakers, members gain knowledge of how the stock market works, along with the latest trends and tools in the industry.
Jewelry-Making Club:
Muhlenberg's Jewelry-Making Club is a community where students can create unique, handcrafted jewelry. From designing necklaces and bracelets, to more advanced techniques like metalworking and soldering, it offers a wide range of jewelry-making opportunities. I've created some bracelets, a necklace, and am currently working on a metal design.
