I like learning how people are able to take an inspired idea and turn it into a product (or book or movie). I had the chance to hear one such story first-hand recently when I interviewed 14-year-old inventor Carter Kostler and his mom for YoungEntrepreneur.com.
You should check out Jeet Banerjee. He’s a 19 year old serial entrepreneur, college student, author and does a lot of other great things. He has multiple startup companies out and is very good at what he does. Here’s his personal website – http://www.JeetBanerjee.com
Think he might be a good candidate for what you are you’re looking for.
