What I Am Looking For In A Mentee - Curiosity and drive! I’m in the best position to offer thoughts to someone who is self-motivated and has their own goals (even if they’re still developing), but not as much to “push” someone every step of the way or micromanage their career. Any level of experience, knowledge, and equipment is “good enough” to start now! I love working with people who are willing to take a leap into the unknown, and who enjoy growing through first-hand experience. There's no defined set of skills or arbitrary knowledge you need to start. Embrace your strengths and challenge your weaknesses!

What I Am Looking For In A Mentee - I'm interested in up and comers who just want to learn some valuable skills and have someone like myself with my experience to bounce ideas off.
Often I've found early on, especially when learning, having peers in this space who really know what they're talking about is invaluable, and I’d be happy to carry the torch forward.
My only request in any kind of mutual partnership here is that the person is interested and committed to learning, not just 1 or 2 offshoot questions that could easily be answered by a Google search/reddit
