title: Mentoring
---
I'm a Lead Software Developer with {{ get_years_of_experience() }} years of experience, who enjoys
sharing my knowledge with others - which is why I [write articles][0], [give presentations and
workshops][1], [do podcasts][2], and [create videos][3].
I've mentored people at events like DrupalCamps and DrupalCons to become new core contributors, and
for bootcamps like School of Code and DevelopMe_ to help people learn software development and find
their first roles.
I'm currently offering free 1-to-1 online mentoring sessions, particularly for those who are looking
for their first role in software development.
## Interested?
[Contact me and apply][4] by telling me about yourself, your experience and objectives, and how you
think I can help.
Sessions will only be available to a small number of people at a time, and I will start a waitlist
if I need to manage demand.
These are **self-guided** mentoring sessions, and not personalised coaching. I won't be teaching or
telling you what to learn, but I will help you learn what you want.
## How does it work?
If I think I can help, I'll contact you to book a short introduction call. If we decide to proceed,
you can book a weekly 30-minute mentoring call with me.
You can also contact me via email, although I don't guarantee any specific response times but will
respond as soon as possible.
## What can I help with?
Here are some things I use and do, and can help you with:
* PHP
* Drupal
* Symfony and Laravel
* JavaScript and TypeScript
* Front-end development and accessibility
* Linux
* Nix
* DevOps, system administration, and automation
## Get in touch
If I can help you with any of these things, please [get in touch][4] and let's talk.
