I’ve managed esports teams, studied event management, and now work in nursing. I'm building Based, an app for spontaneous real-life meetups. No swipes, no feeds, just genuine connection through shared interests. The goal: reduce loneliness by making it easy to find people nearby who are down to do

You bring the tech, I bring the rest. Vision, product clarity, partnerships, and the push to get this off the ground fast.
Hey, I’m Joel.My background is in event management (B.A.) and team operations in esports (managing LoL teams). I’m currently working as a nurse, which taught me calm under pressure, reliability, and clear comms, the same muscles you need to ship. I’m strong on ops, partnerships, and product sense, and I’m looking for a technical cofounder who wants to turn this into something culturally meaningful, not just another social app.
A local social app that turns cities from lonely to lively by helping you meet nearby people through spontaneous, shared-interest meetups and all curated events
