  mentoring_philosophy: "My mentorship philosophy puts the mentee first and builds on a collaborative rather than a hierarchical dynamic. I take the time to understand the mentee's capacity, ambitions, and needs and fully account for them when establishing the mentoring relationship and milestones. In addition to equipping the mentee with the skills they seek, I seek to equip them with sustainable skills and knowledge that will benefit them throughout their academic career. I have strong networks in academia in the United States and overseas and am happy to leverage them to benefit the mentee's ambitions. I also have strong links in industry and can advice mentees on building upon their academic strengths to position themselves for industry."

  overall_research_project_description: |-
    Educational privatization and school choice is highly contested. Whereas proponents of educational privatization argue that market-oriented solutions redress public sector shortcomings in quality and access to education for the masses, proponents of public education argue that private education comes at the expense of equity; that is, private providers exclude poorly performing students and students with disabilities to optimize performance in high-stakes testing. 

    In this context, this projects seeks to conduct a keyword search on major academic databases to extract school choice literature on the impacts and implications of public and private educations on test scores and access to education for vulnerable populations. The time-period of the analysis is 2010 to 2024. 

    This project will inform the ongoing debate on privatization in education and school choice and whether to determine which form of education is more effective in terms of increasing access and quality of education. This is a topic that holds increasing relevance in the passing of the Abidjan Principles in 2019 and the Right to Education acts. It will result in the publication of a journal article in which the GAs will be listed as co-authors.
