Welcome to another episode of Develomentor. Today's guest is Boris PaskhaverBoris Paskhaver is a New York City-based software engineer, author, and consultant. He’s also been an online educator on Udemy since 2016.After graduating from New York University in 2013 with a degree in Business Economics and Marketing, Boris worked as a business analyst, systems administrator, and data analyst for a variety of companies including a digital marketing agency, a financial services firm, and an international tech powerhouse. At one of those roles, he was fortunate enough to be challenged to build several projects with Python and JavaScript. A small work interest quickly blossomed into a passionate weekend hobby. Eventually, Boris left his former role to complete App Academy, a rigorous full-stack web development bootcamp in NYC. The rest is history.If you are enjoying our content please leave us a rating and review or consider supporting usQuotes“A lot of times I would start with excel and think about something I would do typically in excel and try to replicate it in python and pandas““I wanted to go to the hardest bootcamp and I chose App Academy because it had the lowest admission rate. I wanted to invest fully.”“App Academy took a percentage of the first year’s salary rather than charge a huge tuition fee up front. After 4 years in college and 200K in debt I was not eager to invest in educational experience again with that model. I wanted someone who was willing to invest in me.”“Bootcamp was harder than being an engineer on a day to day basis”“Pandas is excel on steroids. It allows you to do the same operations you do in excel. When you’re dealing with large datasets in excel your limit is about 1 million rows. And even when you have more than about 3000, it begins to slow down.“—Boris PaskhaverKey MilestonesBoris accidentally got into Python programming while at Indeed.com. Boris actually landed his first couple of jobs in tech before doing a bootcamp. Why did Boris decide to enroll in App Academy Bootcamp?How did Boris get involved as an online educator on Udemy?Boris also wrote a book – “Pandas in Action”, from Manning PublicationsAdditional ResourcesBoris’s book “Pandas in Action” from Manning Publications – Data Analysis with Python by Wesley Kinney – https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/python-for-data/9781491957653/Check out App Academy Bootcamp – https://www.appacademy.io/bootcamp-prep?location=san-franciscoYou can find more resources in the show notesTo learn more about our podcast go to https://develomentor.com/To listen to previous episodes go to https://develomentor.com/blog/Connect with Boris PaskhaverLinkedInTwitterFollow DevelomentorTwitter: @develomentorConnect with Grant IngersollLinkedInTwitterSupport the show

263: Look For Opportunities To Get Better with Boris Paskhaver

This week we were joined by Boris Paskhaver, a software developer, Agile consultant, online educator and author. Boris is based in New York City and has 240,000 students across 6 courses on the e-learning marketplace Udemy with over 1 million minutes of video content consumed monthly. In our discussion we talk about his upcoming book, *Pandas in Action*, as well as his own transition into coding. Boris was a data analyst before he was a software engineer, and found that Pandas was a great bridge between Excel and Python.So what actually is "Pandas" (spoiler alert: it's "Excel on Steroids" for Python). Why does Pandas make for such a good introduction to coding in general? And would Boris recommend a bootcamp to other people looking to kickstart their tech career? Find out all this and more in this week's Excel-superseding instalment of A Question of Code.Mentioned in this episode Boris' book: Pandas in Action Use code podcodeq20 for 40% off all products from Manning Publications  Pandas Jupyter Notebooks
