20y Data Scientist, CTO and Teacher
Hi! I've been leading and teaching technologists and tech-enabled businesses for over 20 years in various startups I have grown. I learned coding as a child, studied (what we now call) data science in school, and have worked in finance, consulting, and building a series of software startups with various technologies: Tensorflow, Swift, Objective C, React, React Native, Typescript, Node.js, Visual Basic, Solidity... the list goes on.
I'm super practical about technology and how we can cut our cost and time through good tooling. If I can help you find a shorter, easier path, I will. That's why I investigate the integration of quality nocode services into a stack - where is there an opportunity to radically cut costs and improve velocity?
My love is teaching people to be better technologists. Help them see the problem and resolve the issue, rather than just lay my hands on the keyboard.
I bring this teaching approach to community participation and events as well as my companies and 1-1 teaching. I've spoken at a number of conferences and meetups on React Native, Swift, AR, and machine learning.
Currently, I run a Group Mentoring meetup for people interested in no-code. You can sign up at https://statechange.ai/meetups.
And I help where I can with humans coming up.
We're all busy people, so on-demand help can be hard. The best way to get a session in the near term is to book a time with me via my calendly: https://calendly.com/raydeck/codementor
👩💻 I'm currently working on... Helping people ship great no-code and low-code products
🧠 I'm currently learning... Becoming a world-class teacher and coach.

⚡️ Fun fact... I snowboarded for seven months last season!
Corporate operations, finance, managing technologists, product management, data science, complex databases, Swift, Solidity, Typescript, Javascript, shipping like a real artist, and teaching others to do this at a very high level of performance.
