Why did you join sktime's mentorship program? This is my first foray into open source contribution and I wanted to learn the ropes of participating in larger projects and getting meaningful commits out.

What topics are you working on? I currently pulled a small pull req about contribution guidelines to help new users w the installation process here: https://github.com/alan-turing-institute/sktime/pull/695#issuecomment-786506236 I am also working on a refactoring issue here: https://github.com/alan-turing-institute/sktime/pull/693#issuecomment-791194324

What are your learning goals? I hope to understand what it takes to collaborate with such a global team and a project of this scale used by so many around the world.

What's next for you after the mentorship program? I hope to take these skills and implement them in my future endeavors.
