About
From zero to
130,000 students.
I'm an AI and automation educator. I started with one Midjourney course recorded at a desk the width of my arm. Three years later I've taught 130,000+ people, built 70+ courses and still explain things the same way — by building them in front of you.
The road so far
2002
Jasło, Poland.
Born in June 2002 in Jasło, a small town of 40,000 people in south-east Poland. I was an energetic, curious kid — well behaved, good at school, always outside playing football. A happy childhood with two siblings I got on with well. The only real arguments were with my sister, and they were about sweets.
2015 – 2021
Didn't believe in the system.
Somewhere in middle school I became self-reliant. I was resourceful, I could always find a way — and I stopped believing the system had my best interests in mind. I could see that most of what I was being taught in middle school, and later in high school, I would never use. I was always scheming, and I couldn't imagine working for someone else. I always knew I'd build something of my own. Maybe because my dad ran a few businesses, so that felt like the normal thing to do.
Around that time I also fell hard into computer games. From about the second year of middle school to the end of high school, that was my main occupation — eight hours a day wasn't unusual. My grades slipped from excellent to above-average, because I'd stopped caring much about school. I still passed my final exams with a very good result.
2021
Moved to Kraków. Computer science.
After high school I felt I didn't belong in my hometown anymore. I wanted to leave for university and start over somewhere bigger, so I moved to Kraków and enrolled in computer science. It's still one of the best periods of my life — a new city, a lot of time with friends.
It was also where my whole view of how things work changed. I understood that nobody was going to hand me anything: if I wanted to achieve something, I had to work on myself and pick a direction. I'd started reading books at 18, and by then I was reading constantly.

The first course.
In my second year I had a strong urge to build something of my own, so I started looking for an idea — something I could actually do, and some value I could deliver. I tried a lot of things first: selling AI-generated images, drop servicing (being the middleman between a business and the person doing the work), building my own websites. Then I came across a YouTube video about making money from online education.
I asked myself what I'm actually good at and what I enjoy doing. Nobody had ever told me — I just noticed that I'd always loved explaining things to people and helping them figure stuff out. My English wasn't what it is today, but it was well above my peers'. And right then a tool called Midjourney was exploding in popularity. I loved the concept. So I watched a few courses on how to make a course, learned Midjourney inside out, and recorded my first one.
My goal was just to cover my living costs, which back then meant about $600 a month. I remember telling my dad: if I make one course every two or three weeks and each one brings in $50 a month, then in about eight months I'll have twelve of them, that's $600, and I can live off this. It went faster. In the first month, with only a couple of weeks left in it, that one course made $130. In the second month, $700.
My setup was a room with a bed, a lamp and a desk exactly as wide as my arm from fingertip to shoulder. I invested in one good microphone and started working 10 to 12 hours a day — recording during the day, editing in the evening, uploading everything myself. Literally everything, alone. Within a few months I'd published several courses on Udemy and was making around $1,500 a month. I was hooked.
2025
All in.
At the start of 2025 I built what became the biggest n8n course on the platform. It pulled me out of the AI-images niche I'd started in and into AI agents and automation, which pushed me to learn the properly technical side — writing code, building agents, automating whole processes. From that point on, that's been the work.
I left university with half a semester left to do this full-time. I built a team of five. In three years I've taught 130,000 people AI across 70+ courses, and the communities I run — on Facebook and Skool — add up to around a million and a half people. I also record for YouTube every week. Most nights still look like this.
Dec 2025
Bangkok, then Chiang Mai.
In December 2025 I decided I wanted to change something in my life. I wanted an adventure, to completely swap my surroundings and see how I'd cope in an environment where nothing was familiar. So I flew to Asia and kept recording from there — a month in Bangkok first, then a month in Chiang Mai.
Feb – Mar 2026
The Philippines.
Two months of islands. This is the photo I'd keep if I could only keep one from the whole year. Somewhere in this stretch there was also a trip to Japan.
Apr – Aug 2026
Back to Chiang Mai.
Five more months in Chiang Mai, working and living there properly this time. Nine months in Asia altogether — recording, teaching and building the whole way through.
Sep 2026
Home. Kraków.
At the end of August I came back to Poland, mostly because I missed my family and friends. I live in Kraków again. The goal for the next year is simple: teach as many people AI as I can, and put as much of that knowledge online for free as possible.
I run DFA Course Academy, teaching people how to actually use AI and automation tools like Claude, GPT and n8n to build real systems — not just talk about AI in theory.
My n8n course is the #1 rated n8n course on Udemy. Across 70+ courses I've taught 130,000+ students, and outside Udemy I run a Skool community and some of the largest AI-focused Facebook groups — over a million people between them. Every week there's a new build on YouTube, recorded end to end.
I partner with companies I actually use and recommend to my own audience — Hostinger, Apify, GoHighLevel and Higgsfield — rather than promoting tools I haven't tested myself.
