Introductory Call with Dan

Dan is a rare human, and if you are debating on choosing him or not, choose him. He is straight forward in assessing both your skills and providing honest feedback that, quite frankly, most of us lack for growth. Over the course of a year, Dan helped me work through various dimensions of my budding swe career including technical upskilling (frontend), project based learning, and my own ongoing debate of climbing the ladder vs being an entrepreneur. I admire him for his own drive in his career and he really does live out his own advice.

Job offer accepted - Thank you, Dan! Despite a tough job market, much of my success in landing interviews and securing a job is owed to Dan and his mentorship. Over 9 months, he's guided my transition from QA at Apple to modern frontend/fullstack development. Dan is more than a mentor; he's genuine and passionate about his field. He truly cares about his mentees' success, offering patient guidance, invaluable advice, and generously sharing his time. His no-nonsense, results-driven approach cuts through the noise. Dan didn't just teach me; he challenged me, pushing me out of my comfort zone and helping me improve in areas that were lacking. Through regular chats, paired programming sessions, and code reviews, we tackled a range of projects, from mock interviews to fully-fledged production applications. But perhaps most importantly; Dan's support and encouragement have been a constant motivation. In moments of self-doubt, he was there to boost my confidence and overcome imposter syndrome. There were times when I almost gave up or lost focus, and had it not been for Dan, I very well might have. Dan has truly changed my life, and I feel incredibly lucky to have him as my mentor. While I've learned a lot from him already, I know there's more to gain, and I look forward to continuing our mentorship into the future. If you are reading this and still on the fence, this review doesn't cover a fraction of what Dan has to offer. I highly recommend him.

He has also guided me in improving my online presence and CV, making them more appealing to recruiters—and so far, it’s working like a charm. I can’t recommend him enough. The value he brings is top-level, and to me, he is a role model for what I aspire to become.
