I’m a full-time online business owner working in the Python education space.
But I started my career by working as a doctoral computer science researcher at the University of Stuttgart, Germany. While I was working there, I started my online business by finishing a few Python freelancing jobs.
Creating a side-business helped me greatly in developing the necessary business skills—while earning money on my main job. Hence, starting my Python education business online was never a great monetary risk. I simply pushed the business on the side, learned a lot until I became confident that I can go all in 100% working full-time on Finxter.
