This week I get to talk with a good friend of mine, Dr. Gabe Veas, on mentoring, race, his fascinating story, and of course, faith. Check it out!

A native of Los Angeles, in 2017 Dr. Gabe Veas was named the first Professor of Mentorship in the United States. With over a decade of experience as an academic, Veas has taught at twelve institutions of higher learning. Veas is a prolific speaker and author, addressing the societal ills of the day through the mentoring lens at venues such as Princeton and Yale. Veas not only advocates for, but also models how to effectively implement intercultural mentoring as a means of community transformation. He co-founded the consulting firm One Protégé with his wife, Dr. Karina Veas, which has been pioneering research in areas such as protégé-initiated mentoring and Mentoring Lineage. As a highly visible public scholar and sought-after consultant, Veas heavily relies on social media platforms to cultivate relationships with leaders internationally, shape the trajectory of mentoring globally, and help institutions to live into their missions. Recently, Veas launched The Los Angeles School of Mentorship, which is a progressive artistic community dedicated to developing more effective mentors and protégés.
