Founder’s Fog is for builders who are tired of tweaking, second-guessing, and being “almost ready”.
I’m Ruth, and I’m building a climate-aligned tech startup around accelerated materials design. Solo. Bootstrapped. Most days, I’m in the fog too, so I built this space to move through the fog together.
Our vibe? Just founders figuring it out.
This is for you if:
- You’ve got an idea, half-built MVPs, or 17 note-taking apps in your head
- You keep rewriting the plan instead of doing the work
- You’re building in silence and only hearing your own doubts
- Imposter syndrome keeps tapping your shoulder
If you've been struggling with this, you're not alone.
What we do here:
- Get it out of your head and into a clear next step
- Move one meaningful thing forward each week
- Get unstuck in public without being embarrassed
Me, in one line: PhD Mechanical Engineering, Postdoc Chemical Engineering, nanomaterials + rational materials design, 22 peer-reviewed articles, 3 books.
