Teaching
My interactions with those I considered great teachers and professors have led me to inherently develop a few teaching principles:
- Good mentors have regular, meaningful interaction with their students.
- Be adaptable to particular students’ needs/difficulties.
- Demonstrate enthusiasm that goes beyond the classroom.
- Maintain a working knowledge of advances in the field.
I enjoy teaching others and learning from others, whether they are peers and colleagues or they are students in classes where I act as teaching assistant. Over my time in undergraduate and graduate studies, I’ve had many opportunities to be in a teaching position. Each of these are listed below.
Current Teaching and Mentoring Roles
- High School Mentorship through JSHS platforms (since Oct 2023)
- As of March 2025, I am mentoring three high school students across various topics that range from AI applied to segmentation in medical imaging and time-series classification.
