Maybe your question is worth its own thread. Your biggest hurdle will be immigrating to the US. As far as I know the best way to manage that would be to finish your studies in the US. If you're from Canada I believe getting a visa is easier. Many cities/countries have good startup cultures nowadays, and SV is no longer the only option to get started!
If you're from Canada your best bet is to get an engineering degree and to land a job with a startup. Look into the TN Visa for Canadians. There are no limits on application numbers and they're very easy to get (if you have a qualifying degree).

Thank you for this. I appreciate your input. I started a thread [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39205494].
I am from Canada and do have US family.
