Sam Friedman has seen me in both the best and worst of times. If I could boil down our mentorship turned friendship, it would be this: from golf cart rides to pumpkin spice lattes, Sam has been there for good, bad, and socially interesting moments. Sam's larger-than-life personality made me feel safe and seen at the largest university in the nation. I recently had the chance to speak with him to learn more about the mentorship process.
