Vika’s mentorship philosophy:

“Our chief want in life is to find somebody who can help us fulfill our dreams. That’s why mentorship is a critical component for building a successful startup. The mentor-mentee relationship is a process based on trust and effort invested by both the mentor and mentee. A good mentor should provide effective advice to help a new business owner overcome most obstacles along the way.  But a mentee can only  grow if they are honest about their business goals, personal flaws & capabilities and are willing to listen, learn, and implement each given advice.”

Long dedicated to civic advocacy, she has served as a member at the Pro Bono College of the State Bar of Texas, where she donates a minimum of 75 hours each year to serving the underprivileged Texas community. Vika believes that giving back is a key for success and professional growth: “When you give, expect no benefit or recognition. Your sole reward should be the realization that you’ve made a difference, effecting a positive change.”
