After a career change into software engineering in my mid 20's, I've experienced first-hand how much work it requires to get involved and be successful. My passion is to help everyone build their career as a developer and teach the required skills to be a contributor on an engineering team. I ❤️ TypeScript/JavaScript, React, GraphQL, Go
