About The Authors

Brad Traversy is no stranger to creating courses. He runs Traversy Media and one of the largest coding channels on YouTube. Brad got his start in freelancing. Before ever working for a company, he built his own business from the ground up. It eventually turned into a thriving agency that he ran for years. Eventually, Brad got into technical content and education, hence this course.

Kyle Prinsloo is the co-author of this course and Kyle still runs an extremely successful freelancing business. He is a mastermind when it comes to client outreach and running an ongoing profitable business. Brad will present most of the content in this course, but Kyle had just as much, or even more to do with the knowledge given.
