He has over 15 years of experience in data science and software engineering roles.    He was told his performance was below average, and unacceptable, by his leaders at various Silicon Valley startups.   When he finally landed a role at NASA's Ames Research Center, a dream job for the 12-year old inside, he knew he had to turn that around.   That’s when he hired a coach, changed his mindset, took new actions… and received the best performance review of his career.   Curtis is currently working on AI and privacy engineering programs with the United States Census Bureau as an emerging technology fellow, and now lives in San Francisco, California.   So press play and let’s chat… it’s time to unlock your future growth with one simple strategy!   > Full Show Notes, Resources, & More   ============================   WANT MORE AMAZING GUESTS?   “I love Zach and these amazing guests on The Happy Engineer Podcast.” If that sounds like you, please consider following, rating and reviewing the show!    I know it’s a huge favor to ask, but when you follow, leave a 5-star rating, and add an honest review of how these episodes are helping you… it’s a massive benefit for getting the attention of powerhouse guests on this show.    On Apple Podcasts, click our show, scroll to the bottom, tap to rate with 5-stars, and select “Write a Review.”   Thank you so much.    ============================   Connect with your host, Zach White:   LinkedIn (primary) Instagram YouTube
