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 have been a mentor before. At Game Audio Latam we create a mentoring space that opens once a year. This one was very well received, with more than 15 mentors and 30 mentees. It was a very pleasant experience and I would like to continue being a mentor in different communities. What I look for in a mentee is a strong desire to learn and integrate into the industry. I want them to see the mentor as a guide and not a teacher. They can be entry level to mid-level
