Chuck Dishmon is the Director of Software Development for Greenlight Guru where he leads agile software development teams to create and optimize technology offerings for clients in the medical device space. He learned how to program at an immersive, full stack software engineering program called Coder Camps where he re-tooled his skill set after leaving the Marine Corps.

He is also the Founder of Indy Tech Talks, an 800+ Member community hosting monthly conversations related to the Indianapolis Technology community.

In this episode, we discuss Chuck’s transition from the Marine Corps and how he found his way to a career in technology by way of academia and philosophy. I love his advice for networking, and appreciate the authenticity he brings to this conversation.

We also dive into his advice to veterans transitioning to a career in technology, either on their path to learning new skills or finding a career once they've graduated.
