Instructor's Courses

Hey, there! My name is Tony.After graduating as an engineer in Boston I jumped straight into Data Analytics - starting at a startup accelerator in Cambridge, MA where we worked to start web companies from scratch and launch them out to the world. We did exciting work building projects from scratch and immediately saw their impact on the company’s bottom line.Even though this was super exciting work, I eventually decided to turn my focus to what I'm genuinely passionate about - learning how to learn and teaching others how to do the same. Learning is a skill like any other and there are strategies we adopt to make the best use of our energy and time.The brain is like a muscle we never learned how to train, and learning is one of the best brain exercises there are. Throughout my lessons, my goal is to share practical skills with you at the same time that I teach you powerful learning strategies. I hope you find my Udemy courses and YouTube videos helpful and that you join me on my journey to wake up and live a more meaningful life in the present moment, one brain exercise at a time.I'll see you around!
