Web Development Tutor and Accomplished Software Engineer

Donray W.

I started my college journey with a clear goal in mind: to learn video game programming. Along the way, I discovered a passion for helping others learn. As a result, I took on tutoring roles and organized exciting summer camps for children aged 8 to 17. These experiences enriched my understanding of programming and education.

While navigating my college years, I had the opportunity to secure several jobs, both during and after my studies. However, I felt a strong desire to explore new horizons and seek fresh challenges. With this in mind, I eagerly applied for a Dev-Ops role at a local company, which marked the pivotal moment when I transitioned into the dynamic world of web development.

Through a combination of local and remote positions, I honed my skills in web development, gradually building up my expertise. Eventually, I achieved a major breakthrough: a remarkable Software Engineer role in the vibrant city of New York. Relocating here has been a dream come true, as I am constantly inspired by the fast-paced and innovative environment that surrounds me.

As I continue to progress in my career, I have taken on the role of a mentor, sharing my knowledge and passion with others. One such individual is my partner, who made the bold decision to transition from teaching to web development. This opportunity to guide and support others in their journey has further fueled my dedication and enthusiasm for mentoring.

I am excited about expanding my mentoring skills and helping others discover the same joy and fulfillment I find in this field. Together, we can foster a positive and thriving community of aspiring web developers, inspiring one another to reach new heights.
