Study Plan with

Looking to learn a new skill? The vast amount of resources on any topic on the internet can feel overwhelming at times. A mentor can give you an overview of worthwhile content, and work with you to create a study plan.

For this session, it is a good idea to know what you're looking to study, how deep you want to go, and when you want to reach that goal. Based on that, a mentor will come up with a detailed study plan.

If you're serious about growing your engineering career, I'd like to help you.

Ways I can help you form your study plan:

•  If you want to grow as an individual contributor: I can help you identify your best paths forward and show you how to increase your value to your boss, your team, and your company.

• If you want to grow as a leader: I can work with you to find the best ways to leverage yourself for your team, including hiring, team building, team culture, goal setting, and performance management.

• If you're experiencing specific challenges at work or in your career: I've been there. I'm prepared to talk through it with you. I will listen closely, ask good questions, and share my experience and perspectives with you, with honesty and a spirit of learning and growth.

I've been a hands-on engineer since 1996. I've worked as a leader and manager since 2007. I've had the pleasure of working alongside exceptional engineers and colleagues in my career. I’ve helped recruit, build, and lead high-impact teams of professional developers, including remote and international teammates. I've worked at companies of all sizes, with an emphasis on small fast-moving tech startups.

I'm inspired and honoured to be a mentor to great engineers and engineering leaders. It would be a great pleasure for me to help you grow.
