Why this topic matters

Whether you're trying to leave your 9 to 5 to build something on your own or switch jobs, you're constantly hustling. The load is more if you're a neurodivergent user. An on-call assistant that can hash out your priorities for you is a game-changer. As a super IC juggling multiple projects, I've been using this plugin for months and I've not needed a notion or its likes.

ex-Amazon: ML PM | 3x founder | Featured by Lenny Rachitsky

Most people stick to one thing. I've been managing to experiment with three:

teaching professionals to raise the bar while working with AI
helping businesses automate their workflows
running a speciality coffee brand in the UK

This is possible because of a rather uncommon mix of experiences I packed in just over a decade:

Senior PM in a $7.2B Amazon business unit, leading ML and econometric models that moved the needle on delivery experience.
Ops Manager at an Amazon robotics site: 300-person team, 250K+ shipments per night.
MBA from ESADE (ranked #7 by FT), Social Impact Scholarship.
Led marketing at SaaS unicorns: inbound, virality, demand gen, the whole shebang.
Founded a non-profit in rural India at 19, ran it for five years, won state-level awards.
