I'm not confused about having multiple interests — I've figured out that the same skills serve all of them. Here's the map.
Most students pick one path and hope it works out. I'm building a skill stack that makes me useful across three directions — PM, Data Scientist, and Founder. The same Python skills that make me a better analyst make me a better builder. The same financial literacy that helps me as a PM helps me run my own companies. Every skill I learn serves at least two of these paths. That's not scattered — that's deliberate.
Paths
Where I Could Take You
A
Builder-PM
"The PM who can open a terminal"
I want to sit between user problems and engineering solutions — defining what gets built and why. My builder background means I can talk to engineers and understand tradeoffs. My commerce training keeps me grounded in business impact.
What I can do for you now
Write product specs and user stories
Run user interviews and synthesize findings
Build prototypes to validate ideas quickly
Bridge communication between tech and business
Still building toward
More formal PM frameworks, user research at scale, shipped product with real users and feedback loops
B
Analytical Founder
"Builds companies where the product IS the data"
Luni Money is already this. I want to build data-driven products from scratch — the kind where the insight is the value. My finance background means I actually understand the domain I'm analyzing.
What I can do for you now
Clean, analyze, and visualize datasets in Python
Build ML models to surface actionable insights
Frame data findings in business language
Connect domain knowledge to analytical questions
Still building toward
Deeper ML skills, understanding how data products monetize, first real revenue from Luni
C
Roaming Builder
"Ships products from anywhere, funds it himself"
Post-graduation I'm planning a deliberate gap — travelling while continuing to build Luni. Not a break from my career. The most accelerated version of it. Adventure and building are the same instinct for me.
What I can do for you now
Build and ship full-stack AI products independently
Work asynchronously across time zones
Bring fresh perspective from building in multiple cities
Self-manage without hand-holding
Still building toward
Luni to first real MRR, audience and distribution, documenting the build in public

// For recruiters reading this
If you're building something in AI, fintech, or analytics and need someone who can think in product and build in code — I'm available from May 2026 for a summer co-op.
