Mentoring Philosophy

My philosophy for mentoring can be summarized in two folds: Encouraging growth through challenges & Promoting learning through inquiry. I understand undergraduate students are adjusting to their college life while also navigating their career prospects. I hope I can help with a UROP student’s academic career interest through the UROP project mentoring.
