I have gotten a very big interest in Biostatistics and recently I came across Pharmacometrics. I need more understanding of what it entails. Plus I'll need a recommendation of a good mentor in the field. As I would love to have as many contribution as I can in any of the two. I also need recommendations of books that would really help in these fields.
Hi,
I'm not an expert in biostatistics but if you want better understand pharmacometrics let's try a free online course, very friendly form. It's an excellent introduction to pharmacometrics in general.

Pharmacometric models capture the complex interaction between biology, pharmacology, disease and physiology by developing models that quantify interactions between patients and xenobiotics.
It’s Time to Bridge the Gap Between Pharmacometrics and Biostats (cytel.com)
Pharmacometrics is a science that quantifies the interaction between drugs and patients by interlinking the biology, physiology, and pharmacology with disease condition through mathematical models. Biostatistics (also known as biometry) are the development and application of statistical methods to a wide range of topics in biology. It encompasses the design of biological experiments, the collection and analysis of data from those experiments and the interpretation of the results :)

This is a good start.
