Reflections on Mentorship Experience

During the program, having Helena Lyhme as a mentor, he had the chance of learning about the applications of anthropology in industrial areas such as software development and consultancy (focused specially on business analysis and user experience). As a reflection there is a deep gratitude to the organization and his mentor, as it showed and explained in details options for anthropologists who might consider paths beyond academy.
