C developer with 11 years of experience (also C++, C#, Bash, SQL)

After 9 years of hands-on software development in an embedded systems environment, working in amazing teams, I had a strong desire to "give back" and help young developers. Then, I was fortunate to have the opportunity to perform this role for 2 years as a Microsoft AppFactory mentor in South Africa, and now I am continuing this online.

Very helpful and patient whenever I got lost in the massive lines of code. He also made sure I understood the concepts and didn't simply just do the assignment for me.

Nashvin is a wonderful mentor. He's polite, attentive, and considerate to the specific parameters of your problem. I was able to explain my problems thoroughly with him, and he provided thoughtful advice and feedback. If you're looking for someone who can go the extra mile to assist you, Nashvin's your guy!

I mentored/trained software development graduates at Astel (https://astel.info/) as part of the Microsoft AppFactory initiative, preparing them for careers in software development. These interns were primarily trained in the technologies used at Astel: ASP.NET MVC (with Entity Framework) using C#, HTML, JavaScript and SSRS (SQL Server Reporting Services). They were then given experience in all aspects of the software development life-cycle on Astel projects: design, Agile development (using Scrum with Azure DevOps), documentation and testing.
