Hello HN!
I want to help you with any and all of the following: product/customer development, conversion optimization, product processes, and data/analytics. In return, I'd like your help with Python- and Javascript-related questions I can't seem to solve/find an answer to on Stack Overflow.
My Background:
- Built a company (Vuru), went through an accelerator (FounderFuel) and sold Vuru to Wave (Wave's investors include S+C, CRV and OMERS)
- Led product side of Wave's personal finance product (https://www.waveapps.com/personal/) and company-wide engagement efforts
- Laid data-driven foundation for Wave and led team that increased key company-wide metrics by over 50%
Progress Learning to Code:
- Completed up to lesson 43 of Learn Python the Hard Way
- Worked through Google's Python class and exercises (highly recommended)
- Currently going through the Django Tutorial (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/intro/tutorial01/)
To provide a strong foundation, I'm following this article's advice: http://lifehacker.com/how-i-taught-myself-to-code-in-eight-weeks-511615189

You're a full stack developer, experienced with Python and JS, and are looking to improve your business/product chops.
