About

I build with AI, and I coach people to do the same. On my own, I built NutriPlan, an AI meal planning app, solo and full-stack. I grew it to 4,000+ organic users with 60% week-2 retention. I also shipped WalkMap, a street-exploration app, to the App Store, and I run a personal AI agent every day for real work. By day, I'm a Product BizOps Manager at LinkedIn. I work on product strategy and operations, and I spend part of my time on hands-on product projects, including a 0-to-1 GenAI product. I also built the Claude Code workflows my team uses. Before LinkedIn, I spent three years on the investment team for UVA's $15B endowment. I've coached for several years, with a 5.0 rating across 23 Leland reviews. Clients have landed at Google, AWS, Bain, Deloitte, and LinkedIn. I work with career switchers, with operators and analysts who want AI to do real work, and with non-technical people who want to ship something. Sessions are hands-on. We work on your actual problem, and you leave with something that works and a plan for what's next.

Win has helped clients get into these companies:

I studied finance, not computer science. I still built NutriPlan, a full-stack AI app with payments and grocery checkout, on my own, and grew it to 4,000+ organic users. I also shipped WalkMap to the App Store. I'll teach you the workflow I actually use. This is for non-technical professionals and first-time founders who have an idea they want to ship. You don't need coding experience. If you can describe clearly what you want, we can build it. We build in every session: - scope your idea down to something shippable - set you up with AI coding tools like Claude Code - build the first version together - plan your launch You'll leave with: - working code you own - a setup you can keep building with - the confidence to ship the next one on your own

Why do I coach?

I coach because it's a way to give back. I was a first generation college student coming from a family of small business owners, and therefore had no connections or help when it came to embarking on my career journey. I understand how difficult career progression can be when you don't have access to these resources, so I want to be able to share my own expertise with others to ease that burden.
