I used to be a data scientist in Silicon Valley. Today, I'm a full-time content creator, entrepreneur, and author - and my income has gone from zero to far surpassing what I ever made in tech. If you had told me before 2020 that I'd walk away from Silicon Valley's big tech world to become an entrepreneur, I wouldn't have believed you. At the time, I was a data scientist at Airbnb - my dream company. I had already worked at a few other tech companies and built a solid career path.
