Hi, I'm Becca
I teach tools the way I used to teach skills.
I started as an occupational therapist, where the job is breaking hard tasks into steps people can actually do. Then I earned a master's in data analytics and spent four years as a product manager, watching smart, capable people get buried by software nobody explained.
These guides are what I wish they'd been handed: one tool, one level, plain steps, and nothing you don't need.
