Throw back to our May 2024 Mentorship Session with returning guest mentor Yolande Ciamala.
Yolande Ciamala is an associate attorney at Bowmans Law Firm whose areas of expertise include project finance as well as a background in general litigation. She holds a BA law degree, LLB degree and a Master’s degree in Advanced International Law, Trade and Foreign Investment (with distinction).
As a mentor, there’s an indescribable sense of pride that wells up within me as I watch my mentees grow and thrive. Each of them carries a unique spark, a potential waiting to be ignited, and it’s incredibly rewarding to witness their journey towards realizing their dreams. Seeing them overcome obstacles, push boundaries, and achieve milestones fills me with an immense sense of joy and fulfillment.
What truly fills me with pride is not just their accomplishments, but the person they become along the way. I see the resilience they develop in the face of challenges, the empathy they cultivate in their interactions, and the passion they exude in pursuing their goals. Knowing that I’ve played a part, no matter how small, in shaping their paths and empowering them to reach their full potential is a feeling like no other.
