I'm a freelance web designer of 15+ years from Missouri. I'm best-known, as a freelancer, for my work with Michael Hyatt, Lewis Howes and Tim Ferriss. I got into teaching a few years back and absolutely love it. So, here we are!

I help web developers with two things: 1) how to code and 2) how to market yourself so you can learn the technical skills you need and turn those skills into a full-time tech career.
