Answer:

I've been fortunate to have a few, but not at the same time and not always are these people my direct supervisor. I definitely find getting new perspectives on questions/situations helps me develop my own style. I personally don't wish to be exactly like my mentors (even though they are all AMAZING people) but like to take bits and pieces of each to help me move along my own path.
