As I’m more or less a ‘hybrid’ or T-shaped person (teacher and product professional in one)
I decided to split my resume’s into two.

🚀As a Product Professional

As a product professional, I master the spectrum from A to A – meaning, the definition of (a) the product / solution, (b) product development until (c) the launch.

You could say, I’m a ‘Jack of all Trades, Master of none’, but that’s not true. As a product professional, you need to be aware of the whole spectrum, with a focus on product development, and when you don’t know (you can always hire specialists / experts)

ps. So, yes – There are a lot of steps, but ‘hey, you can start anywhere, in the process, but never forget to take the other steps too’.

As a Teacher 🎓

As I teacher it’ my goal to get you from A to B. I will try to understand what it is that you are trying to achieve.

That said, then I will go over to our ‘learning objectives’ and teach you what your fundament steps should be, in order to ‘equip’ and educate yourself, so you can reach your goal.

Most of my lessons are hands-on practical experiences mixed with theory and humor 🙂

Questions, that are not in the curriculum? Let me know. My lessons are interactive and here to help you! So, fire away!

"Those who know teach. Those who understand do.
I do both."

I enhanced Aristotle’s quote, because I disliked that ‘most’ people think that teachers don’t have any experience. Well, I do. That’s why I’m my mission is to link education with the work field. Share theory with actual hands-on experience.
