I spent 15 years overlapping my side hustle (software) with a full time job (engineering). In 2022, I made the leap to full-time self-employment and love it so much I wrote a book about it :)

I have lots of fun stories from the book (and my career) to tell.
-A $100,000 mistake I made with one of my clients
-How my least successful side hustle project became the catalyst for my most profitable client relationship
-The debt-elimination plan (using side hustle income) that gave us the financial freedom to finally quit my job
-How an awkward encounter with the Governor taught me a powerful lesson about standing out in the workplace
-How my embarrassing first attempt at public speaking transformed into a valuable business skill
-The first customer feedback I received from my first public App Store app
