I share the frameworks I built to navigate cross-border life — from portfolio allocation to senior career moves. Education, not advice. Frameworks, not recommendations.
Since I landed in Europe, I've been juggling savings in multiple currencies, watching a tech career compound across continents, and answering the same question every few years: where exactly is home, and where should it be next?
Most professional advice is built for people who stay still. Single country. Single currency. Single career arc. International life doesn't work that way — and the gap in good education for people like us is enormous.
So I built my own frameworks for the two areas where I have most to teach: how to save and invest when your money lives across borders, and how to grow a career that travels with you. Immigration and assimilation? I'll share what I've learned, freely — but those are personal stories, not paid products.
This is education, not advice. I won't tell you what to do. I'll teach you how to think — so you can ask better questions of the licensed advisors who eventually do.
