“Knowing that my mentor, Kim is looking out for me gives me the confidence to push the boundaries of my creativity”
These are the words of a past mentee Temitope Yemitan, as she showed appreciation for the life changing 2 month mentorship period she shared with her mentor Kimberly Diaz Smith via the FCG mentorship program.
Temitope is one of over 500 creatives that have being transformed in the space of 8 years by the FCG mentorship Program.
