About this session

An introductory call is a simple way to get to know a mentor before committing to ongoing mentorship. This session gives you the chance to ask questions, talk through your goals, and see whether the mentor’s background, communication style, and approach feel like the right fit for you. It is a low-pressure starting point designed to help you make a more confident decision.

You can use the call to share what you are working on, what kind of support you are looking for, and where you feel stuck right now. It is also a chance to understand how the mentor typically works with mentees, what kind of guidance they can offer, and whether there is a strong mutual fit. The goal is to leave the conversation with more clarity on your next step and whether you want to continue working together.

Your mentor

We will introduce ourselves, and I'd like to understand your current situation (e.g. looking to switch jobs, change fields, transition from academia to industry), what you need help with, and what you'd like to achieve. We will come up with a plan for how I can best support your career journey, and how you can get the most out of the mentorship.

I reached out to her because I was interested in pursuing PhD in HCI, combining my experience in frontend development and knowlege in UI and UX. Her about her experience in navigating PhD applications and working in labs and conducting sessions to guide me and work together in focus areas, such as research paper, lab applications, exploring degree programs, were valuable. Thank you so much for your dedication!”
