Why Do you Want to be a Mentor?

I want to be a mentor because I am only where I am now thanks to the people who have guided me throughout my life. I want to be the person who helps someone else become who they want to be. I can provide advice on your career, academics, or personally. I live on campus so I'll always be within reach and I want my mentees to take full advantage of that. 

How do You Feel You Would Help Your Mentee?

Whether they want me to read their resume, give advice on what orgs to join, or need help on a problem (which I'll also probably be scratching my head at), I'll be there and present on campus. I'm willing and hoping they know they can come to me for anything. Above all, I'd help my mentee by making sure they feel supported in the most transitional time of their lives.  

What Advice Would you Give to An Incoming Terry?

There is always somebody who is willing to help, if you just ask.
