Building With AI, Not Just Talking About It
I get excited about innovations. Throughout my career, I've led product teams at companies like Taxdoo and Wirecard, while building my own ventures using new technologies.
My journey into AI product development began when I realized I could build products without writing code. By mastering tools like ChatGPT, Cursor, Midjourney and no-code platforms, I've created solutions that would normally need teams of developers.
Today, I'm passionate about sharing these skills with entrepreneurs and product teams. I believe AI is making product creation accessible to anyone with a vision.
