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

I’m a Staff Software Engineer with 11+ years of experience across companies including Meta and NVIDIA, working on large scale systems, system design, integrity/compliance systems, and cross-functional technical execution.
This introductory call is a good fit if you’re looking for guidance on growing as a software engineer, becoming a more confident communicator, presenting yourself more effectively, improving your technical judgement, or preparing for your next career step.
I can help with areas such as technical communication, speaking to larger audiences, presenting your work with clarity, building confidence in meetings, navigating cross-functional collaboration, career growth, system design, prompt engineering, and interview preparation.
In this session, we’ll use the time to understand where you are today, what you’re trying to achieve, and where you feel blocked. That could be anything from preparing for an important interview, improving how you explain technical decisions, becoming more confident in public speaking, positioning yourself for senior-level growth, or simply getting clearer on your next career move.
I’ve mentored engineers through my work and through volunteering with Women@Tech, and I care deeply about helping people grow with more confidence and clarity. My mentoring style is practical, honest, and collaborative. I’ll help you identify your strengths, work through gaps, and leave with clear, actionable next steps.
I usually conduct sessions remotely, primarily during weekday evenings UK time and selected weekend slots.
