About this session
If you're looking for a mentor, and you're just not sure about how this all works – this should be for you. In a casual, informal introductory call, a mentor will introduce themselves, show you around the platform, explain how our mentorships work and explain how they would set up a mentorship with you.
This session is perfect if you're looking for a longterm mentor, but you're just not sure how this can work – or if you already set eyes on a specific mentor, and want to get to know them beforehand.
Your mentor
Hello, I'm Ben!
I've spent the majority of my career as a Software Engineer at Microsoft. I'm passionate about open source, crypto and the future of the web.
My day job is spent working on a range of client-side javascript/typescript, mostly related to service workers and react.js.
I also have a passion for helping others. From career guidance, to interview prep, to advice on navigating corporate life in a company like Microsoft. I would love to help you grow in whatever way I can.
