From $40k to Six Figures
In Tech Without Being a Developer

Absolutely not. I've coached people in their 40s, 50s, and even 60s who successfully transitioned to tech. Your life experience is actually an advantage - companies value professionals who understand business, can communicate effectively, and bring maturity to technical teams. Many of my most successful clients are career changers who leveraged their existing skills.

Yes, they will. The tech industry is desperate for talent, and certifications are often more valuable than degrees. Companies care about what you can DO, not where you went to school. I got my first tech job with just a CompTIA A+ certification and no tech degree. Focus on building practical skills and demonstrating value through certifications and projects.

This is a valid concern, but let me be honest: if you follow the proven path I outline, you WILL get a tech job. The key is starting with the right role (help desk, technical support) and working your way up. I've never had a client who followed the roadmap and didn't get hired. The tech industry is growing 3x faster than other sectors - the jobs are there, you just need the right strategy.

Absolutely! Most tech roles don't require advanced math. Technical Success, Customer Success, Sales Engineering, and many other high-paying tech positions focus on problem-solving, communication, and understanding technology - not calculus. I struggled with math in school but excel in tech because I can explain complex concepts simply and help customers solve real problems.

I focus on sustainable career growth, not shortcuts. Most people land their first tech role in 6-12 months and see significant salary growth over 2-3 years. The wins come from proving your value to companies, not just collecting certifications. Real growth comes from solving real problems for real companies. The key is consistency - spending 1-2 hours daily on your tech education. I've seen clients get hired in as little as 8 weeks when they're fully committed. Remember, you're not starting from zero - you're building on your existing professional skills and adding technical knowledge.

I figured it out alone through trial and error. You'll move faster with guidance, but I won't promise unrealistic timelines. Plan for 6-12 months to your first role, 2-3 years for significant growth.

Being "tech-savvy" is a learned skill, not innate talent. I started with basic computer knowledge and learned everything through practice. The beauty of tech is that you can start small - basic troubleshooting, simple configurations, customer support. As you gain confidence, you tackle more complex challenges. Most of my clients are surprised by how quickly they become comfortable with technology once they have a structured learning path.
