An upskiller is someone who is relentlessly adding tools to their professional or personal toolkit — always enrolled in a course, always learning a new language or framework, always doing something to expand their capabilities. The upskiller is a fixture of LinkedIn and self-improvement communities: slightly exhausting, occasionally insufferable, but genuinely committed to never being the least-skilled version of themselves. In a positive light, they're admirable; in a cynical one, they're addicted to the feeling of learning as a substitute for actually applying anything.
Classic upskiller move — finished his Python bootcamp, immediately signed up for a data science cert before even using the Python.
