🧑💻WHO AM I?
Hello, I'm Deric!
👨💻 Tech, AI & web3 builder.
⚡️ Working on the future of education & work.
🤝 My journey started in 2019 when I left my job in venture capital to self-learn coding to build my own tech startups.
Went broke in 2021 & it sucked!
Here's what I do now:
👩🏻💻 SigmaSchool.co: Learn to code in 3 months, get hired, or it’s free 👨💻
🚀 NorthStackAI.com: Automate sales & ops workflows with my AI systems 🤖
🤝 TryJobier.com: Find & apply to jobs globally, on autopilot, with AI 🌍
📱 Codeo.ai: Learn to code for free on your phone. On iOS & Android.
I dream of being able to run a $1B+ venture building firm some day to enable more game-changing ventures!
Created this channel to share all my learnings and my journey.
If my videos can genuinely help just one person - that would be pretty amazing!
