Bio

Howdy!

I am Patrick Hoang, a student at Texas A&M University.

How others can help me

Others can probably help me with community building at Texas A&M University.

How I can help others

I am planning to start an Effective Altruism group at Texas A&M. This is my plan:

Summer 2024: Non-Trivial Fellowship

Early Fall 2024 Q1: Find existing organizations at Texas A&M and understand Texas A&M culture/values

Late Fall 2024 Q2: Finding people who might be interested in EA; networking

Early Spring 2025 Q3: Get some people to do the EA Introductory Fellowship

Late Spring 2025 Q4: Start an MVP, such as a 6-8 week reading group. 

Summer 2025: Do some back-preparations for advertising the group

Fall 2025: Launch!

Hello! I'm also in the same boat as you - I'm also a high school senior interested in doing some remote EA opportunities during the summer. It's more that I want to test my personal fit with different fields or at least develop some general skills.

If a podcast will make you 9x more effective, then theoretically you should spend up to 80000 hours out of 90000 hours of your career searching for that multiplier.
