Mentoring Objectives & Scope

I enjoy helping my mentees reach their full potential. I respect confidentiality and offer a safe environment to share. If you're looking for endorsement or sponsorship, I am NOT the right mentor for you.

My mentees feel no pressure to impress me, I'd like to get to know you, reflect on experiences, bounce ideas, then hopefully celebrate your successes and be a gentle reminder that we grow from our failures too. I don't have all the answers and I hope to learn from you as much as you'll learn from me.

As a mentor, I can support students in the following: 

- Resume review, interview prep, LinkedIn branding
- Career exploration, matching interests and talents with professions and industries
- Student transition from college to first professional role
- Building technical or subject matter expertise (hard skills)
- Improved communication and interpersonal skills
- Development of leadership skills, confidence, and executive presence
- Expanding a network, building connection, navigating an organization
- Helping entrepreneurial students define a business or product and business plan
- Career Pivot - transition to new role, career, and industry

When and where do you hold meetings with your students?

Hybrid. Can meet on campus and online. 

Additional Information

I'm happily married to my incredible husband who is also an Albers alum. We both work full time and are busy parents to 2 awesome kiddos. I'm grateful my MBA experience at Albers led me to an amazing career. I'm looking forward to giving back and serving as a mentor in this program.
