Well that is a good start. We all need a mentor in this business. Someone we can talk to and someone we can discuss things when we are unsure or have some adversity. Also do not be afraid to have more than one mentor. As your career progresses, it is good to get the perspective from other officials as everyone has different experiences and some people are more familiar with a specific level or conference or even different partners you might work with.

Peace
