Our Mission
Democratize Access to Incredible Mentors
In this day and age of social media, there is a growing focus on the exterior appearance when the inside is truly what matters. Our goal is to instill in the younger generation the value of investing in your inner self and expanding in your knowledge base.
​
Most importantly, we are here to tell you that you don't have to do this alone. We're here to connect you, guide you, answer those "stupid" questions, and share our stories with you, so that you can grow and define your own version of success.
​
Be proud to be smart. Be curious. Learn from others. Set goals. Be ambitious. Achieve your dreams.

Beta Participant, Mentee
"I felt as if my mentor was and still is extremely invested in my success. She went above and beyond in helping me with my resume and a cover letter and was willing to introduce me to people and help network. She was so helpful and I could tell that she really cared and was really invested in the program and helping me to succeed. "
Amanda Pochelska
Beta Participant, Mentor
"I’m invested! We’ve gotten to know each other well and I’m looking forward to staying in touch and hearing how she likes her job. She just moved out to LA, so we plan to get together for coffee or lunch in the next few months so she can tell me about it! I’ve also offered to help her pivot in the future because her job is a 4-month contract at first."

Beta Participant, Mentee
"Without this program, I would’ve never met someone on the west coast that went to Berkeley that became so invested in my success and career. This was an awesome opportunity to get paired with someone solely on my interest. "
