Sahar Rana worked with mentors Michelle Yee (@_michelleyee) and Javier Lovera (@javierlovera). About the experience she says:

"I'm grateful for the mentorship program because of mentors who want the best for me. Their one on one guidance makes me feel like I'm not alone on this journey. Their support has led to opportunities I didn't expect and inspirational advice I'll be carrying with me onward, even in my personal life."
