About

As someone who mostly learned on their own, I have significant first-hand experience learning programming without a set curriculum or structure. It's a challenge! Together, I can help you reach your potential by helping focus your efforts on the most efficient pathways to getting a job.

I have significant experience teaching. I spent a year trying to found a nonprofit startup, AnyoneCanCode, whose objective was to provide free, multi-lingual coding curriculum. I've also mentored dozens of people, multiple of whom went on to get jobs in the industry.

In general I am very passionate about teaching, in high school I even used to make money from teaching piano lessons!

As a business analyst, I've been programming for a while, tempted by a more lucrative and interesting career. I've had fun and learned a lot, but struggled with focus, direction, and consistency. In the first month of our mentorship, Oliver has been incredible, providing valuable insight into the life of a US software developer and no-nonsense advice on what works. I'm reading and practicing most days now, building projects and doing challenges. Let's GO!! 🚀🚀
