Hi, I'm Liza.I'm a PM who builds apps with AI.

As a working mom to a toddler, I was worried I'd fall behind on AI. Then I realized the obvious: I should just build apps for myself!

From PM to builder.

I've spent my career as a product manager, working with some of the smartest engineers & designers to build apps that millions of people use. What I'd never done was build one myself. Now AI fills in the whole team - not just engineers, but an army of PMs and designers I can bounce ideas off - so I can go from idea to working app on my own.

Between meetings, after bedtime, and yes, sometimes during naptime, I build things for work and for my family. I love that I actually use what I make, and when something feels off, I can fix it that same night. The best part is when my daughter asks to use something I built - it makes me feel a lot less guilty about screen time.

I'm sharing what I build and learn along the way - thanks for following along!

What you'll find here

  • Small apps I've built for PMs and busy families that you can try too.
  • Language apps for my daughter, who's learning Cantonese & Mandarin from parents who each speak only one.
  • Write-ups on what worked, what broke, and what I'd change.
