Hi, I’m Janis!

I spent years as an aspiring content creator. Tried YouTube, podcasting, blogging — all of it felt like an uphill battle.

Then I stumbled upon the idea of communicating through visuals. I loved it and pursued it seriously. Six months later, momentum kicked in, and I left my corporate job.

Now, my visuals reach millions every month. I’ve built an audience of 220,000+ and collaborated with people I once dreamed of working with—Shaan Puri, Naval Ravikant, Ana Lorena Fabrega, Jefferson Fisher, Dharmesh Shah, Matt D’Avella, Julian Shapiro, and Steven Bartlett.

People kept asking how I make my visuals, so I put together a course and community to share my process and help others do the same.

I still take on freelance projects from time to time. More info here.

Other projects I’m working on:

Writting and illustrating a book on creative work with my wife, Linda (signed with Harriman House).

Content Pal, a co-creation with Jurij Tokarski. Join the waitlist to be the first to know when we launch our aimple, pay-per-use social media scheduler.

Beyond that, I’m still creating. You can find me on X, LinkedIn, Instagram, or subscribe to my newsletter on Substack.

If you want to share my work, feel free – just follow these guidelines.
