Greg, Hi.

I'm an extremely motivated and introspective English Software engineer, moving internationally to pursue career success. I'm currently running my own software business as an independent software consultant. I've been thinking a lot about what needs to be done to succeed during my time as an engineer, I'd love to share these insights with people and help them achieve their career/academic dreams. I have previously worked at other prestigious companies as a developer such as JPMorgan Chase & Co and one of Europe's most successful Tech Unicorns - Adyen (Bigger than Spotify!).

I think my major selling point is I'm really not a genius at all, and I've had to fight to get where I am using good strategy and appropriate use of hard work. I believe these lessons are very teachable.

I'm looking for a specific type of mentee so please don't be upset if I end up declining!
If you're interested let's have a call free of charge to talk things through.

Quick note: Despite my current LinkedIn title I do not work with Machine Learning, I cover software engineering. I'm sure there are plenty of other great mentors on here who could help you out with ML instead.
