   One of the ways my mentor has helped me the most was with

her patience. There were many times when I had to reschedule

our meetings due to personal reasons, or even times when when

we did meet, I had shown up empty handed. I was not as on top of my deadlines as I should have been, so there were times when I didn't have much to offer to my mentor, but she stayed patient with me and helped brainstorm for ideas, answered any questions I had, and gave me any tips when I did have a story idea to build upon.
