  mentoring_philosophy: |-
    My mentoring philosophy is based on the following principles:
    1. I believe that each mentee is unique, possessing their own strengths and weaknesses, much like myself. I am dedicated to collaborating with each mentee to identify their goals and formulate a plan for their accomplishment. While project advancement is crucial, I equally prioritize the professional development of the mentees.
    2. I firmly believe in establishing a secure and nurturing environment where mentees feel at ease sharing their ideas and posing questions.
    3. I hold the belief that offering mentees feedback and guidance is crucial, while also granting them the space to make their own mistakes and learn valuable lessons from them.
    4. I firmly believe in recognizing the achievements of mentees and inspiring them to persist in their journey of learning and personal and professional growth.

    Introduction:
    The literature on the relationship between affordable housing locationing and economic disparities is limited, but there is some evidence to suggest that people who live in affordable housing units in wealthy communities may experience a number of negative consequences, including: A greater sense of relative deprivation, Lower levels of wellbeing and mental health, Increased stress and anxiety, and Social isolation. These negative consequences are thought to be mediated by factors such as perceived discrimination, lack of social connection, and financial hardship.
    The theory of relative deprivation provides a framework for understanding these negative consequences. The theory states that people's feelings of deprivation are not determined by their absolute level of resources, but by their perception of how their resources compare to the resources of others. In this case, people who live in affordable housing units in wealthy communities are likely to feel deprived because they are surrounded by people who have more money and resources than they do. This can lead to a number of negative consequences, including a lower sense of well-being, mental health problems, and social isolation.

    Methods:
    This study will use a cross-sectional survey design to collect data on the relationship between affordable housing locationing and economic disparities, and the impacts on wellbeing and mental health. The data will be collected using a survey that will measure the following variables: Affordable housing location, Sense of relative deprivation, Perceived discrimination, Lack of social connection, Stress, Anxiety, Depression, and Wellbeing.

    Hypothesis:
    Hypothesis 1: People who live in affordable housing units in wealthy communities will experience a greater sense of relative deprivation than people who live in affordable housing units in less wealthy communities.
    Hypothesis 2: People who live in affordable housing units in wealthy communities will have lower levels of wellbeing and mental health than people who live in affordable housing units in less wealthy communities.
    Hypothesis 3: The negative effects of living in affordable housing units in wealthy communities on wellbeing and mental health will be mediated by the following factors: Sense of relative deprivation, Perceived discrimination, Lack of social connection, Stress, Anxiety, and Depression.

    I am confident that we will be able to publish the results of this project in a peer-reviewed journal. This would be a valuable contribution to the fields of housing policy and social psychology, and it would also help to raise awareness of the effects of affordable housing locations on their residents.
