I've spent the past decade running technology startups, building development teams, and shipping products. One of my favorite parts about this experience was the opportunity to mentor and support other developers on the team, and watch them grow as individuals and developers over the years. Programming can feel like magic at times, but there's nothing fundamentally magical about it - I want to help people understand programming at a deeper level. I mentor and teach part-time at a developer bootcamp in order to share as much knowledge as I can locally.
