Mentoring
Mentorship is a meaningful part of my academic life. I’ve had the pleasure of guiding students and early-career researchers, supporting their growth, and learning alongside them. Below are some highlights of my mentoring experience.
Looking ahead, I hope to lead innovation in tensor-based predictive modeling and process control, contribute to the development of sustainable and efficient industrial systems, and mentor students with the same care I once received. For me, being a professor means not only conducting meaningful research but also recognizing the profound responsibility we have toward our students—each of whom entrusts us with a unique and important chapter in their journey.
