Mentoring Philosophy I believe a crucial component of mentoring is meeting a mentee where they are and helping them build up from that spot. To achieve this, I have several core mentorship principles including 1) Focus on individual growth - as opposed to setting an arbitrary benchmark for mentees to meet my goals is to work with a mentee to understand how they want to grow and what they want to learn and develop mentorship plans and goals from there. 2) The student is the scientist - I believe forming a research question is a crucial skill and I strive to support my mentees in this practice, workshopping their ideas and giving them ownership of their work 3) Open and intentional communication including setting and revisiting expectations for both mentor and mentee.
