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?

Liam P. (IN A NUTSHELL)

Liam is a computer engineering and mathematics double major at Northwestern University. He’s passionate about all things STEM and currently works at an aerospace company programming satellites. At school he spends his time outside of class designing rockets and formula one cars. He’s a huge New York Rangers fan, loves to ski, studies Arabic, and dabbles in Jiujitsu. He also watched too much Grey’s Anatomy so he became a certified Paramedic. Some of his less-productive hobbies include gaming, listening to electronic music, and watching anything sci-fi. His interest in computers spans the gamut of the field — he’s created robots, websites, minecraft mods, video games, mobile apps, and currently works with Northwestern researchers to develop novel machine learning algorithms. Two of his recent personal projects include designing a device that identifies emergency sirens and alerts the driver to their presence, and a machine learning model that generates ideas for his next tattoo. He excels in math and physics with a perfect score on the ACT, the math/physics AP tests, and excellent performance in upper-level college courses. He’s excited to work with students and get them as interested in STEM as he is.
