I am deeply passionate about empowerment of young people. I am heavily involved in academic mentoring. From time to time, I actively seek out opportunities to mentor youth who aspire to pursue doctoral training in economics, finance, mathematics and statistics. Through Baum Tenpers Research Institute, a group where I am an affiliated research fellow, I have supervised and mentored students who have gone on to win highly competitive and generous scholarships to pursue graduate studies at leading institutions worldwide.
Below is a subset of my service activities.

Lead a team of volunteers that assist indigent and gifted students to develop research skills, source scholarships, choose appropriate universities, strengthen application packets, and create winning applications
