Build relationships with mentors by networking like crazy and showing more senior people in your industry that you have passion for what you're doing, a drive to ask questions, and are placing value on their opinion. Ask a lot of questions and form a mentor relationship with those who are most happy to answer them. Mentorships are informal and are more like a professional friendship than the sort of thing you'd be a part of if you volunteered for Boys and Girls Clubs of America.
Reaching out to family friends and acquaintances whom you admire is a good way to start.
