Mentoring in STEM is not only about imparting knowledge but also about fostering strong leadership qualities in the next generation. My commitment extends beyond education to building resilience and self-awareness in young talents, integrating psychology, sociology, technology, ethics, and geopolitics to prepare them for responsible roles in shaping a sustainable future.
