For someone so young, his attributes are very, very good. He takes on board everything. He's got a strong mind, he knows what he wants to see. He wants to lead from the front but he's not afraid to ask, and that's the best thing. But it's not going to happen immediately, so the big thing is to hold tight when things are not going your way, because it's a process. If the manager is angry, you don't follow it up with angry words, you follow up with support and a bit of know-how. There are times when I can give him a helping hand, but there's also times where I go, yeah, that's the right way and something I haven't gone through.

Rev. Jesse Jackson Sr. took a chance on me as a 19-year-old college student. At that age, as an intern in 2009, I should've been pouring coffee, maybe making copies. Instead, he put me to work on college affordability policy, youth violence prevention, and immigration reform at his Rainbow PUSH (People United to Serve Humanity) Coalition on the South Side of Chicago.

DEAR MISS MANNERS: I frequently attend team lunches and dinners with my immediate department members, both supervisors and associates. These dining experiences are mostly personal affairs and come after a week of hard teamwork. We work in an industry where we will be in one location for a few months, and then move on to another city. We all get along and have each other's back.

So much of the industry is based on experience and not education. You can learn all the lessons yourself, but it will take a lot longer. Learning from people who have seen enough things to have a strong intuition can help you be better and faster. In part, this is because the field is always changing. As bad actors constantly improve their techniques, the defenders must respond.

I moved to the US from India in August 2021 to pursue a master's degree in computer science at the University of Southern California. Soon after, I began looking for a summer internship - but things didn't go as planned. Like many aspiring software engineers, I was excited about the idea of working at a Big Tech company like Google, Apple, Microsoft, Meta, or Netflix.

If I got one thing right as a young person, it's that I always chose jobs based on who I would work for,

When I was younger, at 8, I loved building things. I started coding very early. Then I turned 12, I did this entrepreneurship program, and I got really into it. I kept trying to build these companies, these little side projects, but nothing took off. Eventually, I realized a really important thing you need to have is knowledge. I knew nothing about tech or venture capital. I decided to learn everything the best way I could, which is by talking to the most knowledgeable people.

Coach John Beam changed my life when I was a 14-year-old kid on the Skyline High football field. I still remember getting flattened in a varsity drill and looking up to see Beam standing over me, demanding more because he saw more. That was his gift. He coached football, but he taught manhood: accountability, discipline, belief in yourself long before you earned it. Beam fought for me in the classroom, pushed me on the field and helped me get to college when the odds weren't in my favor.
