PATH Mentoring Experience: Former PATH Mentee, 2nd Year Mentor
I Mentor Because… I had a difficult transition to college in 2020 during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic and the PATH mentoring program was one of the programs that helped me make the most out of my first year. I know what it means to have a mentor in my life and if I can be someone who is there for others the way that my mentors have shown up for me, I know I can have a positive impact on the lives of others. I am passionate about making connections with people and resources and mentorship allows me to share these connections with others.
