Mentors has had a significant impact on my life. To continue the cycle, I’d like to make myself available to all of you.<p>A little about me: I have experience working on startups and in innovation centers with a background in computer science. I’m currently based in NYC, but I also spend a lot of time in SF. I’ve travelled most of the Europe, Asia, and the U.S. After college, I actually took 6 months off to couch surf through Europe, which partially inspired me to do this. Learn more about me at panw.weebly.com<p>Given my background, I believe I could be helpful to anyone who is involved with a startup, still in college, or involved with tech (getting involved or already involved). However, I am open to speaking to anyone.<p>Snapchat me @ pan-w

I am highly interested in the opportunity of becoming a mentee.<p>I am a recent graduate, and now CS Grad student whose focus is on web development and database systems. I&#x27;m based in sunny Cleveland, Ohio.<p>I am starting my first company and am looking to share my enthusiasm with, as well as learn from, a mentor.<p>Please follow the link in my profile for my personal page.

I’m interested in becoming a mentee.<p>I like to think my life story is interesting and I&#x27;ll be interesting to work with. Always been interested in business and entrepreneurship. Dropped out of college while studying computer science decided programming wasn&#x27;t for me at the time. Somehow ended up playing poker professionally for a year and starting a screen printing business. During that time, started getting back into software development on my own. Ended up with a good salaried job.<p>However, the drive in me to be an entrepreneur never died. I’m always working on some type of side project and I&#x27;m very well read.<p>Find my email in my profile

That&#x27;s a great offer.<p>I&#x27;ve always found my mentoring relationships to have developed organically, but I am sure that starting from a set of common interests is just as good.<p>I wonder if there is or should be a couchsurfing for mentorship?

I&#x27;ve always been interested in finding a mentor with at least a few years of experience over me (recent grad).<p>As I&#x27;m working in my first job out of school a mentor would be a nice thing to have.<p>My email is in my profile if anyone is interested.

Hi there, I don&#x27;t know if this is the right place to ask but... what does a mentor is supposed to do?<p>I, as a developer&#x2F;&quot;wannabe entrepreneur&quot; have never had something that I could call a &quot;mentor&quot;... maybe the boss of my first job, but I didn&#x27;t see him as a guiding force in my career.<p>What should a mentor do? How do I interact with one? I mean, I send him a piece of code for reviewing? Tell him or her about what I did that day?<p>Hope my questions are not too rude&#x2F;off topic.<p>Thanks a lot!

Thanks for your messages and emails. I was only expecting a few people, but this is awesome.<p>Looks like y&#x27;all don&#x27;t like Snapchat lol. What would be the best platform for us to connect (Slack, Twitter DM, FB DM)?
