I'm a data focused product manager that cofounded a company, still in its early stages (angel funded, launched successful beta, now launching public beta with first major client).
I've been learning programming whenever I can find the time/purpose since early 2013 not only because it helps a ton with our product/vision, but because I've fallen in love with it and want to nurture something that feels relatively intuitive. Since starting, I've learned basics in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, SQL (and database design) and now choose to focus on Python, particularly as it relates to data science.
