Helping people launch successful careers in tech
Practical workshops that give students, graduates, and career switchers the clarity, skills, and real-world insight they need to break into the tech industry with confidence.
Previously Worked With
I help students, graduates, and career switchers understand how the tech industry really works and how to build a successful career inside it.
I've worked across startups, scale-ups, and complex engineering environments as a software engineer and product builder. I've built production systems, launched digital products, worked in cross-functional teams, and experienced first-hand what it actually takes to grow in the industry.
Because of that, my workshops don't focus on theory. They focus on real career decisions, real workplace expectations, and practical steps that help people move forward with confidence.
Breaking into tech can feel confusing, overwhelming, and full of conflicting advice. My goal is to remove that confusion and give people clear direction, realistic expectations, and actionable plans.
What I Focus On
- Breaking into the tech industry
- Choosing the right tech career path
- Understanding real day-to-day tech work
- Preparing for modern digital workplaces
- Using AI and tools effectively in professional environments
Real Advice for Real Careers
I don't believe in generic career advice or unrealistic success stories. My sessions are grounded in real industry experience and designed to give participants practical knowledge they can apply immediately.
Whether someone is choosing their first tech path, preparing for interviews, or trying to understand what working in tech actually looks like, my workshops provide clarity, structure, and confidence.
What Makes My Workshops Different
- Built from real industry experience, not theory
- Focused on practical decision-making and career strategy
- Designed to reduce overwhelm and provide direction
- Interactive and structured around real-world scenarios
- Actionable takeaways participants can use immediately
