  mentoring_philosophy: 'As an undergraduate, I benefited from having had the opportunity to work with great mentors, both professors and graduate students, and I strongly feel that those experiences contributed greatly to my career path and the position I am in right now. I would like to provide the same type of opportunities that I received to new aspiring scientists. As a mentor, I try to provide each student with the right environment and opportunities that would allow them to develop on areas that they wish to improve on while also continue furthering their strengths. I believe recognizing that each student comes with a diverse background and set of skills is key to establish an optimal rapport between mentor and student that facilitates learning and promotes asking questions. Lastly, I learned from my experience with previous mentors that learning is bidirectional in a mentor-mentee relationship so I strongly encourage students to share their experience and skills with me; I can also learn a lot from students.'

  overall_research_project_description: 'This project will focus on the drivers of cooperative alliances in the Lance-tailed Manakin (Chiroxiphia lanceolata). This is a tropical lekking species that performs complex cooperative sexual displays for females. These alliances are composed by a dominant (alpha) and a subordinate (beta) individual. There is a lot of variation in the composition and stability of these alliances and how successful these alliances are. Through this project, will explore the drivers that maintain or split these alliances and how past experience can offer insights into these processes. We will incorporate a network analysis framework to understand the effect of social interactions early in the life of these birds on their cooperative behavior and alliances.'
