Hello!

I’m Seattle’s official ambassador for a popular AI coding tool called Cursor, and I’m hosting our first event next month: Cursor for Product Managers.

When: Wednesday, February 11, 6:30 PM - 8:30 PM
Where: Side Hustle: Taproom in Kirkland

It’s a free, interactive workshop where we’ll cover how PMs can use Cursor for product work. Beyond development, Cursor is just one of the most powerful ways to use AI to build your own “product OS” in general. It’s going to be awesome.

There are only 100 total spots available (25 filled already) and I expect it to fill up very quickly once I start posting about it more, so here’s your chance:

See you there!
Carl
