Mouna helped me with a simple app I decided to build in hopes to learn how API's work and it was super beneficial. She clarified concepts for me that made it easy for me to understand and also talked through her reasoning, which was super helpful.

Mouna helped me to sort through what I was trying to do related to mvvm, retrofit, kotlin coroutines, and modern software patterns. I have learned so much in even just a couple sessions.
