Violet Powers
Mentor in first-generation students and law school
- 🇬🇧 Belfast, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom
- Belfast Youth Network
- 2000 to 2016
- English
For 16 years I've mentored people in first-generation students and law school. Mostly it's coffee, honest feedback and a lot of listening.
Most of my mentees are early in their careers. A few are in their fifties and starting over, and they're some of my favorites.
More about Violet
Some of my mentees now mentor others. That's how it's meant to work.
Areas of mentoring
What gifts mean to Violet: I'd put gifts toward travel for in-person sessions with students.
