30 Things I Want to Accomplish Before 30
This page was inspired by two people. Firstly, my friend Brian, who wrote the same blog post on his personal site years ago and has been a great friend and mentor to me since we met in 2021. Secondly, my friend Tanya who has an on-going goals list on her Notes app and has the craziest hustle regimen out of anyone in my life. Brian and Tanya — thank you for constantly inspiring me and making me a better version of myself, and this one is for you!!!
