Donovan is one of the most down-to-earth and well-rounded engineers I’ve had the pleasure of working with. As a bootcamp graduate without a degree, I was stuck sending applications into a black hole, and even when I got interviews, I struggled to approach them properly and piece together my narrative. Donovan's advice and our conversations were game-changing. It felt like he could articulate my story better than I could myself. Every question I asked was met with detailed, insightful responses, often delving deep into industry topics and the interview process in ways I hadn’t considered. I was thoroughly impressed with his comprehensive approach. Thanks to Donovan’s guidance, I landed a role within the first month of working with him. I wouldn't have navigated my interviews successfully without his help. The narrative we crafted resonated not just with me, but with the company I interviewed for. Donovan also provided excellent technical resources and has continued to offer honest, thoughtful advice as I prepare to grow in my new role. I can’t wait to get started, and I can’t thank Donovan enough for his support.

Donovan is a great mentor. He is very responsive and provides detailed and insightful feedback to incorporate into my work.

Donovan's breadth and depth of experience with a wide variety of cutting-edge software technologies across the stack along with his delight for sharing ideas make for a great mentor. He himself is always hungry to learn new things and that attitude is contagious. As someone who ventured into software development without a traditional CS background Donovan was an amazing guide in helping not only build upon the skills I'd accumulated but also providing insightful suggestions in providing a path forward. He's quick to respond, generous with his time, and always delighted to answer questions. He's great at breaking down difficult concepts in a way that's conversational and easy to grasp. I'd definitely recommend Donovan as a mentor for anyone just starting out or someone with some experience looking to level up.
