  mentoring_philosophy: |-
    As a museum educator at FSU MoFA, my mentoring philosophy is deeply rooted in constructivism, which emphasizes active engagement, critical reflection, and collaborative inquiry. I believe in co-constructing knowledge with my mentees and encouraging them to actively participate in their learning journey by engaging in hands-on exploration, dialogue, and reflection. Through collaborative inquiry, mentees are empowered to ask questions, explore ideas, and challenge assumptions, fostering a deeper understanding of themselves and their work.
    In my mentoring approach, I aim to create a supportive and inclusive learning environment where mentees feel comfortable expressing their thoughts, sharing their experiences, and asking questions. By providing scaffolding support and encouraging active participation, I guide mentees in constructing their understanding, developing critical thinking skills, and fostering a growth mindset. Together, we embark on a journey of discovery, exploration, and self-discovery, where mentees are empowered to take ownership of their learning and grow into confident, capable professionals in their chosen field.

  overall_research_project_description: |-
    The "Creating Virtual Museum Exhibitions: A Practical Guide Book Project," spearheads a transformative journey from theoretical exploration to hands-on application in museum exhibition design. Anchored in the ethos of participatory and edu-curation strategies, this project responds to the evolving needs of small to medium-sized museums navigating the digital landscape. Under my editorial and authorial guidance, alongside the assistance of two dedicated Research Assistants, we aim to produce a groundbreaking book set to be published by Rowman and Littlefield from 2025 to 2026.
    The project is poised to uncover in-depth insights and practical methodologies for crafting virtual exhibitions that resonate with diverse audiences. Focusing on inclusivity and accessibility, our work will weave together a tapestry of case studies and firsthand accounts from practitioners worldwide. As the editor and author, I will lead the project's conceptualization, content development, and overarching vision. At the same time, the RAs will play a pivotal role in editing, coordinating with contributors, and ensuring the seamless execution of our research objectives.
    This collaborative project seeks to not only offer practical guidance on exhibit design and technological integration but also to explore the underlying motivations and significance of digital transformation in museums. By marrying theory with practice and fostering a global perspective, our book endeavors to empower museum professionals and enthusiasts alike to navigate the digital frontier with confidence and innovation.
