Why I am available as a mentor for the MCI Mentoring Program

I have greatly enjoyed my semester at MCI and thought the mentoring I received then was valuable. If there is a student that thinks I could bring value to their journey, I would be happy to help.

My wisdom/my motto

The race is long and in the end its only with yourself.

When I look back at my time at MCI...

I think of the sense of community I had with my fellow students, of great lecturers (especially some of the guest lecturers) and the amazing outdoor sports opportunities.
