How I'd describe myself
Like Ripley from ALIEN. Strategic, logical, empathetic, supportive, passionate, bad-ass when I need to be, prepared, forward-looking, reflective and justice-seeking.
Why you became a mentor?
There were very few women in leadership when I was coming up the ranks. I had lots of great male mentors but believe navigating the business world as a woman is more complicated. Add in that I am of mixed race and it gets even more complex. So, I am here to help other women and minorities become more successful by helping build soft and hard skills needed.
An ideal relationship to You
As a mentor, having a mentoree that is curious, responsive, takes honest feedback as constructive, and proactive. In return I will offer support, coaching, empathy, knowledge, outside the box thinking, and enthusiasm for your success. It could be a monthly chat or quarterly. But it would be up to the mentoree to set the pace, agenda and follow up.
