I'm at my happiest professionally when I'm helping people learn new things and avoid pitfalls. This has been a thread for me ever since I started tutoring math in college.

The most rewarding experience of my career to date was teaching a brilliant student intern what she needed to know to be a web developer.

I would love to do more of that.

I like teaching junior people about core development techniques - version control, project management workflows, specifications, automated testing, code review, and the core flows of actually writing Web software.

I'm pretty good at building project-specific tooling, particularly with bash, and would enjoy passing on that knowledge, too.

I've put a lot of effort into code review over the years, and can both give you good reviews and also teach you to do better reviews yourself.

I'm a heavy Emacs user who also loves vim (I use evil-mode for vim keybindings in Emacs), so if you want to explore either of those, I can help you find your footing.

I've contributed to a number of open-source projects over the years, too, so if you're not sure how to get started there I can help you learn the ropes.
