Full-Stack JavaScript Developer (Node.JS); Entrepreneur/Founder; Works on Ethereum and Financial Applications; Ex Investment Analyst

I am an intermediate Node.js developer, data scientist, and entrepreneur. I am interested in mentoring individuals who are looking to expand their JavaScript knowledge, both on the client-side and server-side.

I am also able to mentor individuals on application development- mobile, web, and desktop.

I am a big fan of using docker to package and ship applications. I start my dockerfiles with an ubuntu:latest base image. The instructions written in the dockerfile are commands run in the Ubuntu terminal. Additionally, all of the digital ocean servers I am running are Ubuntu servers.

I use dockerfiles to define the environments for the applications I develop. Additionally, I deploy docker containers use docker-machine, which allows me to deploy docker containers using a variety of drivers, including virtual box and digital ocean. For cloud architectures with linked services, I use docker-compose to connect my desired containers and use docker-compose scale to distribute among docker hosts.

My experience with MongoDB started with taking the introductory course offered by MongoDB University ( https://university.mongodb.com/ ). Since then, I have used MongoDB ( and mongoose for defining schema logic in my Express.js applications ) as the database for my RESTful APIs.

Ryan teaches in a casual manner and is very mindful of time/cost in relation to value gained from our session. While I initially insisted we look at my existing code base, Ryan was quick to realize that the concepts I inquired about would be easier for me to understand if we wrote a more rudimentary example from scratch. I'm thankful he identified this early so that we could maximize the value of our session together.
