  mentoring_philosophy: |-
    The research in my lab aims to improve language and literacy outcomes for children from diverse backgrounds including children with differing abilities as well as children from diverse socioeconomic, cultural, and linguistic backgrounds.  
    As a mentor, my primary goal is to support my mentees in becoming creative, independent scientists equipped with the skills necessary to excel in their chosen careers. Successful mentorship, to me, is marked by the ability of my mentees to contribute original research to their fields, publish in peer-reviewed journals, and secure positions that align with their professional aspirations. To achieve these goals, I offer guided learning experiences tailored to each student's needs, including hands-on research opportunities, regular one-on-one meetings, and collaborative projects. I provide constructive feedback on their work, model effective research practices, and encourage participation in conferences and professional networks. In return, I expect my mentees to approach their work with curiosity, a strong work ethic, and an open mind. They should actively engage in the research process, communicate their progress and challenges, and take initiative in pursuing their academic and professional goals. I strive to build mentoring relationships based on mutual respect. I aim to be approachable and supportive, especially during challenging times, and I prioritize open and honest communication. My goal is to create a safe and encouraging environment where students feel empowered to take risks and grow. I am committed to demystifying the process and practice of science, making it accessible and engaging for all students.

    MAP-R Morphological Analysis Pathway to Reading
    The MAP-R project aims to improve morphological knowledge, academic vocabulary, and reading comprehension of students with or at risk for disabilities including multilingual learners and students who are d/Deaf or hard of hearing (D/HH) through a technology enhanced supplemental instruction focused on bolstering morphological knowledge for word learning using an e-learning platform for delivery. MAP-R provides explicit instruction on morphemes in academic words packaged with rich oral language experiences within supplemental digital instruction to serve as a catalyst of improving morphological knowledge and increasing academic word learning. The 15-20-minute intervention will be implemented three days a week using an e-learning platform. MAP-R is a multi-component intervention that focuses on morphological knowledge instruction, direct vocabulary instruction on a small set of academic words each week, and on-demand Spanish and sign language support. Progress monitoring data on embedded weekly quizzes will be utilized to assess student outcomes and refine successive iterations of the intervention.
