We’re currently cooking up a new experiment. If you’d like to talk to us about it, let’s connect! It’s going to be fun.

Steps to apply

Looking to grow your skills with personalized, cross-disciplinary coaching for designers and developers? Let’s see if we’re a good fit. We offer one-on-one coaching focused on your specific goals.

We’d love to hear what you’re aiming for and figure out if our approach matches your needs. This isn’t about enrolling in a program—it’s about finding the right coaching connection for your professional development.

  1. 1. Fill out the applicant screener

    The screener form is a highly scientific way for us to determine if you will flourish in this type of learning environment. It was created by Chat GPT 5. We don’t even know how it works. We just know it does. Good luck!

    Take these quick surveys too: survey-a, survey-b

  2. 2. We'll setup a meeting to talk about it

    No pressure, no sales pitch—just a Zoom call where you can ask anything. Whether it’s about our coaching, the industry, or avenues like boot camps or college, we’re here to listen to your story and help you figure out what’s best for you.

    Make sure you’re on a good computer with solid internet so we can see your face and share screens if needed.

  3. 3. We might send you a special challenge

    Follow the instructions—it’ll be fun, and it’s a great way to see if our coaching style is the right fit for you.

  4. 5. Are we a match?

    If we both feel like this is the right fit—awesome! We’ll get started and dive in from there.

But don't you want us to take a really hard coding test first?

No. That wouldn’t make any sense for our approach to teaching. We teach you everything we want you to know (the way we want you to learn it) in the course.

It’s true that there are a lot of mainstream coding schools with basically no technical barrier to entry. They’ll take anyone with money – even if they kinda know it’s not going to work out.  That is a real problem to watch out for. But as you should know – we really aren’t comparable to those schools. We’re different. And we’re not like the schools with the high technical barrier to entry either. We’re a small and personal mentorship. It’s just a completely different situation.

The hardest thing about learning to think like a programmer isn’t technical. It’s a change in how your mind works, and it’s hard. It’s going to get really uncomfortable at times. There are no directions. We’ll teach you how, but you are going to be the one who has to make the choices. When we interview you, we’re looking for your learning style and your work ethic. We’d never take on a student if we didn’t firmly believe in them.
