History
Frustrated by the seemingly endless number of cookie cutter consulting and training options in the industry, Proaction Mentors was founded with a different goal in mind.
Our goal is to mentor teams of developers to perform at their best.”
- Caleb Jenkins (Proaction Mentors Founder – 2010)
We have no desire to become your developement team, instead, we find that the greatest impact we can have is to help your existing development team perform at thier absolute best.

Occasionally he writes curriculum, speaks at conferences, and write code for silly things like Twitter applications.
