Why I mentor

I mentor because I know how much it matters for young people to have someone in their corner who listens, encourages them, and genuinely believes in their potential. I want my scholars to know they have someone they can count on.

Best advice

It’s okay to be different. That’s usually the most interesting thing about you.

A note for you

Heyyyyyyyy! Don’t be nervous, I promise I’m pretty easy to talk to! 😊 You don’t have to know exactly what to say. We’re just going to get to know each other, have some fun, and build from there. I’m excited to meet you, hear about the things you love, and be someone you can count on along the way.

With care, Simone
