Background
👋 Hi! It's Roger!
First of all, welcome to my portfolio. This is a never-ending page, so feel free to keep checking it ;) This is currently hosted on my company's site... yeah... I know, but you know... Nexting Labs being an extension of me... I thought why not, right?
Anyway! Let's say I've been an entrepreneur all my life, since all the way back when I was 12, when with "The Social Network" film in mind, I taught myself HTML and created my very own "social network" (very simple but it worked!) it connected and enterntained hundreds of people at a point.
Well, I don't want to bore you. And... yeah... I tried and tried to make something big, until I started what I call my first successful business. A clothing brand. The money I made with it I later re-invested into my 2nd successful venture, Wifimilk. This was a 2k-listeners podcast featuring the likes of The founder of The North Face, YC founders, GP at 500 Global, founder with $15M+ in funding, and other big names. That really thaught me a ton and I earned a name within the startup world.
Holly molly, right! Yeah... But I need to always be doing stuff otherwise I go crazy haha jk. So in 2021 after my UG, I became a founding member at HypeX, a VC-backed startup where we pioneered fractionable digital wearable NFTs for the metaverse.
After HypeX, I did my master's in Data Science, got into ML (predictive modeling), DL (computer vision, NLP), and recently into RecSys. So I thought you know what!? I'll start my own Data Science Consulting firm. So this is how Nexting Labs was born, as a place or "labs" for me to build "cool stuff", for both my clients and for Nexting Labs itself.
