Networking how do I do it?

Hello bigger pockets community I am new to the real estate investing world and I am going to a local meet up of investors next week.

However my issue with networking is not knowing how to approach a person. In my personal hobbies it's easy for me to approach someone because of my familiarity of the subject , But being completely new and knowing very little on real estate I don't want to annoy someone with a million questions what I want to do is leave a good impression that could potentially land me a mentor or future business contact.

What would you guys suggest I do to have a positive networking experience during this meet up

@Adrian Valdez

How about, "Hi, my name is Adrian."

They say, "Hi, I'm Bob."

You say, "Hi, Bob, tell me more about yourself."

Sometimes that simple intro can get a long conversation started.
