Guidance for 2025 term 1

[uddhavphatak]

Hi,
I’m seeking guidance on starting my journey as a mentee under CNCF. I was a successful GSoC contributor in 2024 with the Linux Foundation and am now eager to contribute to CNCF. I have the following questions:

1. What would be a good starting point for me to begin contributing?
2. How can I connect with mentors who can guide me and help address my doubts about the projects?
3. Are there any tips or insights that I might not be aware of but could significantly improve my contributions and growth as a developer?
