[Priority Access] 🎟 You're invited to my FREE "Engineering Leadership Blueprint" Workshop


Hey friend,

✨ I’m thrilled to share that I’m bringing back my popular workshop, Engineering Manager Blueprint and this time it’s completely FREE 🎁!

📆 When: September 3rd, 2025 - 12:00 - 1:30 pm EST 🤩

📍Where: Zoom

Figuring out how to succeed as an Engineering Leader in 2023 can feel like walking through mud. Thankfully, after leading 100+ developers and leaders, I’ve developed a system to make that walk feel shorter and easier.

In this 90-minute workshop, you'll learn:

  • A 8-part framework for succeeding as a Leader
  • Where to focus your energy (right now)
  • How to start early and create value
  • How to setup yourself up for success

If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or not sure where to start, this is the plan I would personally follow if I were starting today as a Leader.

💖 The session is 100% free to join, save your spot below:

In my talk, I share how I built a custom course platform using Next.js (the same one that powers Modern Full Stack Next.js Course) along with the lessons and challenges I faced along the way.
