Mentoring Philosophy When mentees' finish working with me, I want them to be able to use the tools and skills they have learned and developed in the real world. As a research mentor, an important goal of mine is for mentees' to be able to apply what they have learned in a meaningful way to help them meet their future goals. This is why I believe it is important to have a dedicated space and time when students can ask questions about both their research project and professional development.

Additionally, my mentoring philosophy emphasizes the importance of building a safe space where mentees' feel able to learn without judgement and feel mutual respect. It is important to me that I emphasize that part of the learning process is making mistakes, and mentees' should not be blamed or judged for what they do not know. However, it is a mentees' responsibility that when they make a mistake or learn a new thing, they are able to be corrected and learn how to implement a change going forwards. Successful mentoring and teaching means students feel safe making mistakes and are able to learn from those mistakes in a judgement-free environment.

Finally, it is important that I help instill a sense of ownership into mentees and that they feel pride in the work they are doing. To do this, mentees' must be held accountable for the work they produce and be held to high standards. With great power comes great responsibility.
