"On surface, being
a mentor is a way
of giving back.
But it's also a
powerful way to
help someone work
from their personal
strengths and to find a new confidence. It
becomes a rewarding experience for both and
often leads to a long term relationship. For
me, I'm always reminded to keep stretching as
I listen and reflect on how I've used my own
strengths to land opportunities."

"My favorite part
of being a mentor
is watching the
transformations
take place as a
result of personal
and professional
growth. However, I want to stress that the
growth takes place for both the mentees
and the mentors! This growth is a result of
the participants learning new information,
new skills and being exposed to a diversity
of ideas."
