About Brian


Bio

I started my career as a developer right after high school. I interned at a software company while attending UNC and earned a BS in computer science in my 4 years there. I immediately went into the industry developing build tools and j2ee applications. After expanding to work on apps in golang, javascript, and Kotlin, I moved into a DevOps role helping build a platform & helping our developers adopt it.

I started my career as a developer right after high school. I interned at a software company while attending UNC and earned a BS in computer science in my 4 years there. I immediately went into the industry developing build tools and j2ee applications. After expanding to work on apps in golang, javascript, and Kotlin, I moved into a DevOps role helping build a platform & helping our developers adopt it.

As I've grown, I've increasingly taken roles where I help others. During the summer, I am the tech lead for my company's intership program where we develop features on a full stack project & build the appropriate CI/CD. I got my start mentoring in the FIRST Robotics program, where I've helped high school students learn programming and electronics basics for over a decade. I'm also active in the DevTogether Chicago chapter where we take a mentee's project and address a problem over a 2 hour session. I love to help others and expand access in technical fields.

Linux

I've been developing and deploying applications in linux for over a decade. From my ubuntu and arch workstations, I containerize applications on centos, debian, and arch linux distributions. Having worked with the various flavors, I've gained an understanding of each of their peculiarities and how to write code that works across the platforms.

Pretty awesome start

Very patient and knowledgeable, and knew exactly where to start from after explaining my goals. Looking forward to our next lesson! It seems that this review can’t be posted unless I leave 160 characters, so I’m just writing this portion to get it up there.

very helpful session

Brian helped me navigate the AWS production environment and find the code running. I learned about AWS console and Linux commands. I have feeling that I will use this knowledge a lot.

Brian Didn't Give Up

Brian understood my primary interest and worked on what I needed. He found a bug that I would never have guessed. To me, he found a vary hard bug. He also mentioned some areas that could be fixed/better. Thank you, Brian!

Knowledgeable and patient programming tutor

Brian and I have worked on a range of Java programming problems. Brian comes to lessons prepared and is ready to answer my questions or to work on issues I'm having with specific assignments. I truly appreciate that Brian is able to work with me at my level. He is an expert in his field, but is still able to break down concepts so that I can understand them. I highly recommend Brian as a programming tutor. He is organized, efficient, good at communicating, and upbeat! I will continue working with him regularly.
