Mentorship

I have substantial professional training and experience in the area of mentorship, including a year serving in a 20 hour/week position as the STEM coordinator of a university-wide mentorship program for new graduate students at UC Riverside, as well as several years mentoring graduate and undergraduate students in research labs and through various programs.
