Hi, I'm Jonathan! I'm an experienced technologist that teaches university students, entrepreneurs, older high school students, and adults in general.

I first started learning about AI and data science in 2012 and have been programming since early high school. I've also worked with companies like JPMorgan Chase and American Express, as well as funded startups and the United Nations, so you can learn many practical tricks from me. Additionally, I've taught, advised, and mentored people working on the business side as successful startup founders and in companies that include Anthropic and Google. You can achieve the results you long for, as long as you put in the work. I would love to assist you in reaching the proficiency you desire!

When teaching, I enjoy seeing people feel good about the same things that were stressing them out before. I will take an approach that actually teaches you the material, rather than just telling you the answers. Anyone can find the solutions somewhere, but it's the way you think about it that will allow you to excel in all aspects. Each person's case is unique, but almost all situations can be improved with the right strategies.

My degree in Software Engineering allows me to also understand computing problems in a deeper way. I can teach concepts at both a practical and theoretical level. Understanding the underlying principles beneath something lets you grasp how to really solve things.

Just know that you can break through the barriers you are stuck at! You get out the effort that you put in, especially with the right person helping you.

In addition to the technologies listed, I am also highly proficient with PyTorch, Databases, LLM APIs, NumPy, Pandas, Node.js, Code Generation, React Native, Playwright, SEO, and UX Research and Design, among many other things. If you think there may be another subject I can teach you in that's not in the standard categories, feel free to ask!

I can't wait to help with your particular sticking points. I will talk to you soon!
