Looking for a cybersecurity mentor: Takeshi's career change at 30
Takeshi, a security guard, is retraining for cybersecurity and is looking for a mentor for monthly calls over six months.

I have worked as a security guard for 9 years, and I'm 30. After years of wanting more, I decided to move into cybersecurity, and I have completed a bootcamp.
What I'm missing is someone who has walked this path: feedback on my capstone project, a realistic view of the job market in Tokyo, and a sounding board when things feel overwhelming.
I'm hoping for one 45-minute video call a month for six months, plus the occasional email question. I'll bring specific questions and I won't waste your time.
All I can offer back is my thanks, and I'll mentor someone else once I'm settled.
Thank you so much.

Hang in there, Takeshi. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Shinjuku.
Thinking of you, Takeshi. Looking forward to the next update. I'll check back for the next update. Take care
Sending love. Hope the shop reopens soon. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Wishing you peace. Small businesses are the heart of Shinjuku. Hope you're open again soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless.
Wishing you peace, Takeshi. Hope the shop reopens soon. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Wishing you the best, Takeshi. Hope this works out for you. Don't be hard on yourself for asking
Hope it all works out. Your post was clear and honest. My neighbor in Móstoles donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.
you're not alone, Takeshi. I hope things turn around soon. Love from Ikeja
