Mentor Contact Information

SPIM members are welcome to reach out to members below that have offered to serve as a mentors.  We are envisioning a co-mentoring model, so you may serve in both mentor and mentee roles, even potentially within the same relationship.  Once you reach out, you and the mentor can determine what will be most beneficial: from one phone call to a series of ongoing contacts, according to your needs and availability. Any SPIM member may complete the mentor survey and register as a potential mentor at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/spimmentor.  When you do so, your information will be added to the directory and members may contact you.
