As an experienced software engineer and agile coach, I’m excited to share my real-world expertise not only in crafting clean, high-quality, and flexible code but also in leading interactions between software teams, management, users, and product strategists. With a proven track record of leading software teams using agile methods like Scrum and Kanban, I am deeply passionate about mentoring students to become the best professional versions of themselves. My teaching philosophy emphasizes hands-on learning and problem-solving skills, while my mentoring approach focuses on nurturing students' growth as both programmers and individuals. I am committed to inspiring and guiding the next generation of technical professionals, equipping them with the skills to navigate the multifaceted landscape of digital product development, including effective communication and collaboration across diverse stakeholders.
