I recently received the Leadership in Mentoring award via the ACS Postdoctoral Scholar/Graduate Student recognition program. This recognition was even mentioned by UMD in the following linked article. To repeat the words used when they asked for my opinion:
This award has meant the world to me; I’ve enjoyed my time at the University of Maryland so much over the past year, especially as I have watched mentees go on to do wonderful work at research laboratories and industrial positions.
I have had the pleasure of seeing mentees go to the Army Research laboratory, pursue studies at graduate institutions, and get very excited by science in the day-to-day. I hope to continue this moving forward.
