  mentoring_philosophy: |-
    My professional mentorship philosophy encompasses integrity, humility, and empowerment. I believe that effective mentorship is built on a foundation of mutual respect and a commitment to the growth and development of the mentee. I strive to create an environment where the mentee feels heard and can enhance their current strengths. Here are the key principles that guide my approach:

    1. Identifying Mentees' Goals: Understanding the unique aspirations of the mentee is crucial to the mentorship experience to be able to evaluate the mentee, measure their success, and help them research effectively. Mentees are encouraged to use their talents to enhance the research project and develop new ways of collecting data. 

    2. Giving Mentees Ownership: Empowering mentees to take the lead inspires responsibility and accountability. I will strive to empower the mentee to develop independence and confidence when researching the project. 

    3. Encouraging Growth and Promoting Learning: I believe in the effectiveness of building strong leaders through mentorship, encouraging them to take risks and make mistakes as it leads to the success of the mentee and project. I motivate the mentees to reach new heights and develop new skills to foster their growth as a leader. 

    4. Sharing My Experience: I encourage the mentees to ask me questions, learn more about my role, and use my experience to help them with their research. I will share the good, the bad, and the random experiences that have happened during my career that shaped the outline of this research project.
