In 2015, I wanted to capitalise on my previous failure, so I produced various online courses to help beginners to design professional mobile applications using Sketch. I marketed my courses leveraging online international platforms (udemy.com and similar ones) and YouTube.I managed to sell tens of thousands of courses. I received 5, 4-star ratings only.

Geneva Area, Switzerland

In 2013, I studied mobile app & web design. I designed 2 mobile apps for iOS, which I developed in partnership with GoVisual, a premium app development studio based in Amsterdam.Frankly speaking, I was not enough experience to understand how complex it may be to properly launch and grow a serious mobile app (or any digital business), so I failed. And I lost lots of money. Despite this, it was an amazing experience that tremendously helped me to mature professionally.
