  mentoring_philosophy: "As a mentor, I strive to build a relationship that is both effective and meaningful—grounded in mutual vulnerability, flexibility, and accountability. Vulnerability, while frequently framed as a weakness, is actually a researcher's greatest strength. I aim to (as a great teacher once said) take chances, make mistakes, and get messy myself, but also to create a relationship with students where they feel comfortable and supported enough to do the same. Central to this is my commitment to celebrating students’ diverse backgrounds and ways of thinking. For these reasons, I also value flexibility. Flexibility allows us to meet each other where we are, recognizing that growth is rarely linear and that each individual's path requires a responsive and adaptive approach. I also value accountability—not as a checklist or formality, but as a mutual commitment to show up, follow through, and be honest with each other. It’s how trust is built, and it reminds us that we’re both invested in the process and in each other’s growth."

  overall_research_project_description: 'Around 8% of teachers leave the profession annually, which was further exacerbated by the pandemic. This qualitative study aims to understand why some teachers leave the profession while others stay by analyzing TikTok videos from current and former teachers. This study examines teachers’ experiences, focusing on their working conditions and how they use humor to cope with challenges, to develop a theory about how humor can help teachers remain in the profession.
