Selling across borders.Building with AI.
I’m Can. I work on international sales at Babyjem and spend my spare time building with AI. Here I write about work, tech, fatherhood and life.
I’ve spent my career on how products get sold. These days I’m also a dad, a tinkerer and a curious buyer of gadgets. This is where I keep notes on all of it.
Hi, I’m Can.
