Student looking for a mentor in SEO

About You:

Dear mentor, I am a 22-year-old information systems student enrolled in a Master's degree in Germany, but am an exchange student in the US currently. I have started programming at the age of twelve and began learning web programming at the age of 14. I enjoy technical topics and like to learn more about them. I used to be a very competitive athlete and became a basketball coach and referee a few years ago. This year I interned as a consultant in project management in a young, dynamic and innovative company located in Germany. I was privileged to attend courses like Communication Skills, Cyber Security and Project Management. Also, I was responsible for creating a new training on Business Strategy. Recently I got into contact with internet marketing and SEO specifically. I spent days reading and watching videos to get into the topic which I found very interesting. A few days ago I came decided that I wanted to start a business in this field. Unfortunately, I am not allowed to work or freelance as a J-1 exchange student in the US. However, I don't want to wait until I am back in Germany in May to start my journey. For this reason I decided to start a blog on SEO and my improvements, so I can build reputation and not start from scratch once I am back. I will have three more semesters until I get my Master's degree which is why I want to (/am restricted to) start out part-time, but continue full-time after my graduation. My vision is to successfully manage and run a small to medium sized SEO company in seven to ten years. I am eager to start this path and learn the necessary skills to become successful.

Looking for:

I am looking for a mentor who is a successful entrepreneur himself and went through the same or a similar path I am looking to pursue so I can learn from you and grow with your advice. I want to be able to come to you with questions about a wide range of topics including the stages you went through as an entrepreneur. Ideally you already have experience in SEO or internet marketing which would accelerate my learning curve. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me!
