I learned growth hacking from Andrew Chen (Uber, a16z) and Brian Balfour (Hubspot), and I met my first VC (Keith Rabois)!
I discovered the secrets of Y Combinator from Mattan Griffel and Chris Castiglione (YC S13) and started PetroRecruit through the program.
I constantly have new product ideas. I'm not amazing at it quite yet, but I'm practicing to bring those ideas to life with wireframes and mockups.
When I have time, I turn my designs into functional prototypes and MVPs. My projects include stock trading tools, workout apps and recruitment ideas.
My first exposure to ML was through Udacity. The foundation helped me get started on my own personal projects.
I learned AI/ML more formally through a master in computer science, specializing in applied machine learning.
I learned how to build an online web presence, and built a business around freelancing services and hosting a web development workshop.
Once a website is up and running, you need exposure! I built ad campaigns on Google and Facebook to build awareness and web traffic.
