About
I contain multitudes. I’m a huge nerd that loves manga and video games and can be really introverted and quiet at times, but I’m also a retired male gymnast that hits the gym regularly, and can be super loud and energetic when around people I’m comfortable with. I’m also really good at card games and can teach you a lot of them.
Why Do I Want To Be a SASE Mentor?
Throughout my life I’ve been a mentor for many people, like my younger brother and the younger kids on my gymnastics team, and I’ve found that I genuinely really enjoy it. Giving advice and helping people understand concepts is something that comes naturally to me at this point, and I hope I can leverage those skills to give back to the SASE community in a meaningful way.
Career Goals
Still not 100% certain on anything (who is?), but for now I just want to make bank with some kind of Software/Data Science job, probably at a bigger company (got HUGE V-bucks at Vanguard) but open to smaller companies too. Eventually I want to move into a position where I can teach/consult for people (professorship? private tutor? coaching?) and/or make educational content (youtube? khan academy/coursera/udemy?).
Co-ops
Vanguard - Software Developer, NewLane Finance - Data Scientist Co-op
Interests
Card games (ERS, Poker, Hearthstone, Yugioh, MtG, Pokemon etc.), Video Games (Smash Ultimate, League, Genshin), Anime/Manga (Shonen/Seinen and Slice of Life), Gymnastics/Parkour/Calisthenics, Music (play the violin, listen to Rock, JPop, some Kpop)
What to Expect From Me
I plan to adapt as needed to my mentees’ needs, and there’s a variety of things I can do for you. Whether you want help studying, picking classes, resume reviews/interview prep, someone to vent to, work out with, or even just play games together and give you anime/manga recommendations, I can do it all. I’ll make sure to check-in regularly with you, but I hope you’ll also be proactive about reaching out to me.
How I Envision My Relationship With My Mentee(s)
Very friendly and casual at times, like sending memes to each other or meeting up just to grab food and hang out/play games together, but also more serious at other times, like providing you emotional support and helping you develop as a person.
