Just discovered pauper! Would love some deck advice

My wife recently got into Magic and have been playing with some starter decks and kitchen table brews.

We are interested in some more advanced decks and pauper seems perfect for us! Meta decks sound fun but Modern is way too pricy and I'd like to eventually do some more competitive play.

Would love recs for 2-4 decks we could make! Will play these at home then likely find some others at our LGS to play more competitively!

I prefer interactions and combos. My wife likes a bit more straightforward, but we both are interested in the higher end brews!

Appreciate the tips!
