Community Recap: Mentorship & Upcoming Events

We reached over 550+ people through live mentorship & community events so far!

Yesterday I hosted a community ask me anything session with over 460+ RSVPS!

I answered questions about product management, transitioning from intern to full-time roles, and how to build a broad, diverse skill set.

I’ve also updated the community page with a list of events to empower those interested in learning from speakers of various backgrounds.
