About
I'm a self-taught Developer with experience at large B2C companies like Deliveroo and Memrise. I have a track record of helping people get their first jobs in Tech as well as upskilling Developers to get significant pay increases.
I'm very proud of the work I've done with my mentees, check out the reviews to see my mentoring style. I'm generous with my time, calls typically last 60 minutes each and during the first week trial I include a free introductory call.
In addition, my first career was Tech recruitment where I personally face-to-face interviewed 100s of developers, designers and product managers. Therefore, I can not only coach you technically, but also help with career pathing and all the soft skills necessary to be successful in our field.
Finally, one of my strongest technical areas is Testing. I've found that most Front End Devs are relatively weak in this area. If you are looking to improve in this area in particular, then you're in the right place.

Dan has been a game-changer in my development journey. His mentorship not only boosted my confidence but also played a key role in landing me a new frontend role. Dan's teaching approach is both effective and engaging. The weekly tasks he assigned allowed me to apply theoretical knowledge in a practical setting. Our review sessions were enlightening, providing a deep understanding of the code and the rationale behind certain methodologies. This hands-on approach not only improved my technical skills but also enriched my problem-solving abilities. His support was crucial during challenging moments. For instance, dealing with interview rejections can be demoralising, but Dan's guidance shifted my perspective. He stressed that rejections are a normal part of the professional journey and not a measure of personal skills. This mindset adjustment proved crucial as I navigated the job search with renewed resilience. If you're a developer looking for a mentor who goes the extra mile, I highly recommend Dan. His dedication and practical approach create an ideal learning environment. Grateful for his impact on my journey, I'm confident others will benefit just as much from his mentorship.

Dan is full of knowledge and enthusiasm. He would often overstay our agreed meeting time-limits and help me out in any way he could. I found him to be well prepared and competent. I would highly recommend.

Dan helped me to craft a plan along with projects that would help me to understand Front End Development further than I ever had before. One of Dan's greatest strengths is to help you stay focused on what matters. In becoming a self-taught developer there are so many tangents and side paths that could lead you on a longer path than needed. With Dan's help, I was able to craft a solid portfolio of projects based around React, and JavaScript. His expertise in recruiting has provided insights into how to navigate and approach getting a job. Although I have not secured a job yet, I am early in the process of applying and still reach out to Dan for guidance.
