After working in video games, e-commerce, and fintech, I’ve noticed that software engineers don’t get enough mentorship and guidance. We often go it alone or have managers who are excellent at building software but struggle with leading people.
Over time, I saw that mentoring the developers I worked with, managed, and hired was having a big impact on their careers, and it was really fun for me! Even a few folks who watched a talk I gave on YouTube reached out from across the globe, and we talked over email. This is why I joined MentorCruise: to continue helping with a platform dedicated to mentorship.
I have a lot of experience to share across many projects, teams, companies, platforms, stacks, and languages. Send me an inquiry or apply; let me know what your favourite programming language is; ask me questions; I’m happy to help. I will be candid with you: if I’m not a fit or can’t help you, I will tell you.
