A NOTE FROM OLUWATONI,
TSF TEAM LEAD
Hey there,
I’m Oluwatoni Akinola, Team Lead here at The Student’s Friend. I’m so glad you are here and considering reaching out for mentorship. I know I needed it when I was where you were – navigating academics and my career path.
My LinkedIn will highlight my trajectory, but my list of educational and work experiences doesn’t highlight my struggles. These included doubting my subject and course decisions, feeling inadequate for being in STEM, lacking motivation, and not being sure how to navigate a career in science and public health.
I’m still on the journey to improving my skills, learning, and fulfilling my purpose. I definitely cannot say I’m there, wherever that is, but I have improved clarity, confidence, and strength in my field. I want this for you.
