    Mentorship plays such an important role in all of our lives regardless of vocation and interests.

I also want my mentor to know me on a personal level. They should know my current and future goals in life and should care about them as much as I do so that they can help me stay on the right track. All in all, I want my mentor to provide an exceptional learning experience for me and, in doing so, allow me to gain more awareness, insight, and perspective.…
