Mueed is a great mentor. I remember my first coffee chat with him, he was very professional and organized with the invite, and location. He was all prepared and answered every question very professionally. He is also very detail oriented and know what he is doing. It’s been over two years I am his mentee and several times I had random problems and questions, and I could always reach out to him. He never considered any of my questions as silly questions. He always explained the pros and cons of the situation and how that will be more or less productive. Hope to stay in touch with you and all the best!!
