Providing guidance is a central element of my mentoring philosophy. As a mentor, I strive to help and guide my mentees in addressing the issues they identify. I aim to offering concrete suggestions and actionable advice on how to move forward when encountering challenges and difficulties Being supportive is another important element. Whether my mentees are considering a future as researchers, practitioners, or a combination of both, I hope to share my experiences to help them explore their options based on their interests. As a first-generation college student in my family, I understand the confusion and uncertainty that can come with navigating different resources. I am committed to support my mentees identify available resources so they can succeed without feeling lost or overwhelmed. A final part is encouragement. Research often involves complex concepts and an iterative process of refinement, which can feel intimidating. However, discovering the unknown can also be exciting. I seek to explore these unknowns together with my mentees, encouraging one another and collaboratively finding solutions. I view the mentoring relationship as a shared journey—a challenging but rewarding adventure where we learn and grow side by side. mentor_handbook_and_faqs: '1' name_of_other_faculty_collaborator_if_applicable_: '' number_of_assistants_needed_faculty_postdoc_max_6_graduate_stude: '1' other_faculty_collaborator_s_preferred_pronouns: '' overall_research_project_description: 'This research investigates how LIHTC affordable housing policy changes in Florida have influenced LIHTC location patterns. Florida was selected as the setting for two main reasons. First, it is one of the largest states in the US. Second, in 2016, the state government created a Geographic Areas of Opportunity Map based on census tract indicators, including median income, education, and employment. This map was integrated into the state’s QAP to encourage the placement of LIHTC in high opportunity areas. Specifically, this research asks: what are the socio-demographic characteristics of LIHTC neighborhoods before and after the introduction of Florida’s Geographic Opportunity Map? How has the introduction of the map influenced LIHTC placement patterns in Florida?' please_add_any_additional_information_here: '' please_provide_a_link_to_your_publications_a_video_clip_or_a_web: '' please_select_the_choice_that_most_accurately_describes_your_exp: In-person please_select_the_location_of_your_project_: 'On FSU Main Campus' position_availability_for_student_research: 'Flexible schedule' position_title: 'Graduate Student' primary_research_mentor_name: 'Chao Wang' project_keywords: 'Low-income Housing Tax Credits, Neighborhood Change, Poverty Concentration, Affordable Housing' relevant_student_major_s_: 'Social Science, Public Policy, Economics, Real Estate, Public Administration, Geography, Urban Planning' research_mentor_preferred_pronoun2: '' research_mentor_pronouns: '' research_mentor_supervisor_if_different_from_above_: '' research_tasks_for_student_research_assistant_s_: 'Conducting a literature review and cleaning interview data for background understanding' roundtable_times_and_zoom_links: '' skills_that_research_assistants_may_need_: 'Literature review' title_of_the_project: 'Does Florida’s Geographic Opportunity Map Influence the Siting of LIHTC Affordable Housing?' update_url: 'https://cre.fsu.edu/urop-research-mentor-project-submission-portal?ajax_form=1&_wrapper_format=drupal_ajax&token=6bZqFZlhwSrpIcXzn0Jz_Q3DsCalysPNeVt4JRwtenk' urop_performance_evaluation: '1' urop_poster_presentation: '1' when_potential_research_assistants_are_reaching_out_via_email_2: '' when_potential_research_assistants_are_reaching_out_via_email_wh: '' when_students_are_reaching_out_via_email_what_is_your_preferreda: '' would_you_like_to_participate_in_the_urop_research_mentor_round2: 'Yes' would_you_like_to_participate_in_the_urop_research_mentor_roundt: 'No' year: '2025'
