Mateo K. Banks
Helping people break into first-generation students
- 🇺🇸 St. Louis, Missouri, United States
- St. Louis Foundation
- Since 1996

For 30 years I've mentored people in first-generation students and teaching. Mostly it's coffee, honest feedback and a lot of listening.
I always have a bag of oranges in my drawer.
It has been a good run and I'm grateful for all of it.
