About

I am passionate about mentoring because I believe in the transformative power of guidance and support. Mentorship has played a pivotal role in my personal and professional growth, and I want to pay it forward by helping others navigate their journeys. By sharing my experiences, challenges, and insights, I hope to inspire and empower others to reach their full potential while avoiding some of the pitfalls I’ve encountered.

My focus areas in mentoring revolve around leadership, career development, and strategic decision-making. With over eight years of experience in the mobility industry and a background in business development, people management, and entrepreneurship, I am particularly interested in supporting individuals looking to excel in these fields. Additionally, I am passionate about innovation and leveraging technology to drive sustainable growth, especially in emerging markets.

I aim to help mentees build confidence, develop actionable goals, and make informed decisions that align with their values and aspirations. Mentorship is not just about providing answers but fostering a meaningful relationship where both mentor and mentee grow and learn together.

Mentorship motivation

  • I want to give back to the startup ecosystem and entrepreneurs coming up
  • I want to make new connections for myself and/or the organization I represent
  • I want to scout for new opportunities in engaging as an advisor or for a board seat

I am motivated to mentor because I believe in giving back to the startup ecosystem and supporting the next generation of entrepreneurs. Having benefited from the guidance of others throughout my career, I feel a strong responsibility to share my knowledge and experiences with those just starting out. Mentorship allows me to contribute to the growth and success of individuals and businesses while fostering innovation and resilience in the entrepreneurial community.

Additionally, I see mentorship as an avenue to scout for new opportunities where I can contribute in a more strategic capacity, such as serving as an advisor or on a board. Engaging with emerging entrepreneurs provides insight into fresh ideas, innovative solutions, and dynamic business models that align with my expertise and values.

Lastly, I view mentorship as a chance to build meaningful connections for myself and the organization I represent. It’s an opportunity to expand my network, collaborate with driven individuals, and create mutually beneficial relationships that advance both personal and organizational goals. Mentoring is not only about giving but also about learning and growing alongside the next wave of change-makers.
