PRO TIP:

When evaluating whether a mentor would be a good match for your student keep in mind that the greatest leading indicator of success is how well a mentor and their mentee get along.

Questions to ask yourself:

Would the student find this person inspiring?
Do they share any interests, hobbies, or lived experiences?

Julia K. (IN A NUTSHELL)

Julia is a Senior at Northwestern University, studying Learning and Organizational change, Entrepreneurship, and Legal Studies. While seemingly diverse, all three programs empower Julia to analyze and solve organizational problems across contexts. Outside of the classroom, this is Julia’s second year as the President of Northwestern’s Undergraduate Real Estate Club. Growing up in New York City, Julia was always infatuated with the Real Estate industry. At school in Chicago, she has loved getting to learn about the incredible architecture and fascinating history of her new home. Additionally, Julia is a member of Northwestern University’s Association for Women in Sports Media. She was able to combine her love of Organizational Studies with her passion for Sports Media when she interned at the Creative Artist Agency (CAA) as a Brand Consulting Intern in the Sports & Entertainment Advisory Group this past summer. Currently Julia is serving as the Teaching Assistant for one of her favorite courses: “Innovate for Impact” -- a social impact entrepreneurship course. In her free time, Julia loves cooking, running, and playing board games.
