My name is Rob and I currently work as a Senior Solutions Architect. I've also worked as a Mobile App Developer using Unity and the C# programming language to create engaging mobile apps. The latest apps that I have worked on include the Marvel Collect, Disney, and Star Wars Card Trader apps by the Topps company. Prior to this I worked on a Scratch to Win mobile app for both Android and iOS with over 10 million installs. I have also worked as an cross platform mobile app developer using Unity (C#- iOS) and Android Studio (Java - Android), a Virtual Reality Game Developer, and teacher’s assistant at the New Jersey Institute of Technology for classes in Python, JavaScript, C# and 3D Modeling. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Information Technology from NJIT. As a student who never programmed until I got to college I want to help others looking to enter the tech industry and teach them the techniques I used to learn programming quickly and effectively. My teaching focuses on conveying the most relevant skills that you can use to build your portfolio and get real, hands-on technical experience geared towards landing you your dream tech industry job. I am an industry professional who also has teaching experience and a passion for learning and teaching about the latest programming languages and technologies. The topics I enjoy teaching and am very knowledgeable about include: Mobile App Development, Computer Programming, Information Technology, Game Development, and Web Development.
