Hello, I am an archivist based in NYC, who is hoping to switch careers into data science in the next year or so. I have been teaching myself python, R, sql, stats, DS theory, etc. My trouble is networking and finding a mentor. Self-taught routes are rather isolating and this is even more apparent during a pandemic. How do you suggest to network, finding mentors locally, or internships in this situation? Thanks.
