One mistake cost me $100K+/year

This may sound dumb, I confess. 

But it's the reality for many. 

I wasted several months applying to PM jobs with a decent resume, a clean LinkedIn, and all the “right” bullets.

And I still got ghosted.

Here’s why:

I was telling the wrong story.

Tech hiring doesn’t care about perfect resumes.
It cares about confidence, clarity, and whether you sound like someone who can actually manage risks and lead delivery.

Once I cracked that code, everything changed.

No PMP or Prince 2 certifications. Yes! 
I just learned how to position what I already had — and boom: PM Role.

 

Few months later, a 6-figure role.

That’s the exact blueprint I teach inside the 30 Day Tech Project Manager Accelerator.

It’s not about studying. It’s about becoming:

  • The person that speaks PM fluently

  • The one who knows how to show up in interviews with certainty

  • The one companies want to hire — even if your path isn’t traditional

  • The person who understands how tech PM delivery actually works and is not just trying to BS their way past an interview

 

You’re closer than you think.

We've created a course that's easy to understand, cuts through the noise and gives you curated know-how and the confidence you will need to win.

But only if you move.

Let’s stop guessing.
Let’s get you in the room where the offers happen.

You're doing the work. So why don't you have the title?
Don't be like me. I used to run the project. You can relate to this, I'm sure. I'd do it all. Classic "good boy". Set up the meetings. Chase the updates. Write the handover docs nobody else wanted to touch. Then sit quietly while someone else presented it to the director. I wasn't invisible because I wasn't good enough. Not tooting my horn. I was good. Very good. 😎  I was invisible because I ne...
Stop Running. Seriously. Stop
I’m writing a different type of note today to you. It may make you feel uncomfortable; truth often does that.   But it’s really to ask you 2 important questions: When you look at what you are doing daily, does it lead you to the desired life you say you want? If the answer is no, what is really stopping you?   You may have signed up to get a free tool, or learn about project management.    Ho...
AI will make most people stupid
Sounds extreme, but it isn’t - and it will happen in many ways.   First, for most people, algorithms will figure out your preferences. Religion, politics, biases, preferences. Then the algorithms will spit a lot of that right back at you in your feed. Many apps have a feed by design; “Hooked” by Nir Eyal shows how this can be addictive - by design. Pretty much, you consume a lot of information ...
