Mentoring Philosophy

As a mentor, I intend to guide students in developing the necessary skills for academic research. I have had inspiring mentors to assist me in pursuing my academic goals in the past, and I would like to pass on my own knowledge and experience in their footsteps. I also strive to develop my own aptitude as a mentor by working on collaborative research projects with interested students.
