About

Curtis Liu

I'm studying business economics at UCLA, and I like turning ideas into things real people use.

In high school I started Bonfire Golf, a company making heated golf gloves for winter play. I interviewed 30+ golfers and coaches, secured USGA rule-compliance approval, and sold out our first 36-pair batch in 5 days. I also ran a student investment club and led a robotics team that qualified for the VEX Robotics World Championship.

Away from the laptop I'm a two-time state champion golfer who also likes skiing, rock climbing, and custom keyboards.
