I need a mentor to guide me, give me hands on skills and introductions in order to get my foot in the door of cybersecurity.

Hi Chaz,
Thank you for your question! Have you been to the Community site on our page? You can search for Advisors by industry and location, to try to find someone to connect with in your desired field: https://acp-advisornet.org/community/advisors
Additionally, LinkedIn has several Veteran Mentor Groups that could be helpful to look into. You can join communities of thousands and post similar questions there. You could also use LinkedIn search features to identify people in cybersecurity in Las Vegas, to privately message and start a conversation. It can be helpful to try to find people with similar connections - such as other Army National Guard service members, people who have the same alma mater as you, etc. - that way you have a more "warm introduction" when you message them.
I hope this is helpful, thank you for your service and for using our site!
All the best,
Sarah
ACP AdvisorNet Staff
