    In this episode of Brains Behind The Business, host Courtney Moody chats with Daniel Mason, a full stack software engineer, mentor, and coach who’s helping aspiring tech professionals navigate the ever-evolving tech landscape. Whether you're a new grad trying to land your first dev job, a mid-career professional making a pivot, or someone who’s simply curious about tech career paths, this episode offers practical advice, personal insights, and grounded mentorship.

    Daniel shares what it’s like mentoring through various platforms (including Accomplishr), why patience and persistence are key when breaking into tech, and how transferable skills can make or break a career pivot.
