Pair Programming with

This session involves you and your mentor working collaboratively to develop coding skills, troubleshoot coding issues, or complete coding projects. In this session, a career coach with expertise in coding and software development will pair with you to work on a coding exercise or project.

Throughout the session, you and your mentor will work together to write, review, and test code, providing feedback. The mentor may observe the session, offering feedback and guidance as needed to help you overcome coding challenges and improve your skills. The mentor will, however, not write code on your behalf.

I have over 20 years of experience as a professional software engineer; I've written code in many different languages (C, C++, Ruby, Python, Java, Clojure, Objective-C, etc.) in a wide variety of industries (finance, web, mobile, embedded, medical, etc.). I also have extensive experience managing infrastructure on AWS.

You should book this session if you are working on a coding task, and you could use someone to virtually sit next to you and guide you towards completing the task on a minute-by-minute basis. We will work collaboratively, and I will offer guidance on the coding process, best practices for coding, and tips for using specific coding tools or resources.

I will answer any questions you might, but I will also encourage you to work through the challenge on your own. These sessions are especially effective if you reflect on your process and learning live throughout the session. At the end, we will discuss what you've learned, and how to apply this knowledge in future coding projects.

I am looking forward to working with you!
