Career changers, self-taught developers, and juniors moving into software engineering who want real project experience and a clear path. No degree required — but you have to put in the work.

How much time does it take?

Project-based, so it flexes around your schedule. Most mentees commit a few focused hours a week. We set a pace at the start and adjust as you go.

What does the format look like?

One-on-one, built around real work. We set a roadmap together, you build on actual projects, and I give direct feedback through code review and regular check-ins.

Will I work on real projects?

Yes. You ship production code on real projects, not toy exercises. That work becomes the portfolio you show employers and clients.

How does pricing and structure work?

Mentorship runs on a different model than my project work, so there's no fixed package here. Once I understand your background and goals, we sort out a structure that fits. Apply below and we'll talk it through.

What's the partnership opportunity?

If you progress well and it's a good fit, you can join real client work as a partner — earning a share of shipped work while building direct client experience and a track record.
