"No matter what anybody tells you, words and ideas can change the world."
– Mr. Keating, Dead Poets Society
At the heart of research mentorship is a belief that every student, regardless of background, experience level, or identity, has the capacity to contribute meaningfully to academic knowledge. As a mentor, I see it as my role to support, challenge, and walk alongside mentees as they explore ideas that matter to them, while developing the confidence and skillsets to navigate the research process and larger academic community. My approach to research mentorship is guided by four key commitments: (1) amplifying diverse voices and approaches, (2) connecting research to future goals, (3) meeting mentees where they are, and (4) fostering a respectful, inclusive, and collaborative research environment.
