Left corporate consulting to become an AI entrepreneur
After retaking AI Mastery in 2026, Sonja left corporate consulting to become an AI entrepreneur. They now help purpose-driven companies scale with AI and are building an app to reduce loneliness among older adults.
I first completed AI Mastery in 2023 while working in corporate consulting. When I took it again in 2026, the curriculum had changed so much that it felt like a completely new programme.
This time, I moved from learning about AI to building with it. Together with Entrepreneurship Mastery, which I also completed in 2026, it gave me the confidence to leave my corporate job and start a new career as an AI Mentor, Consultant and Entrepreneur.
One of my projects is an app designed to help older adults feel less lonely by making everyday connections with people in their neighbourhood easier.
Today, I help companies whose products or services make the world a better place scale their businesses with AI. I combine my consulting experience with practical AI skills to help them grow and increase their positive impact.
AI Mastery helped me do more than update my skills. It helped me choose a new direction for my work.
