BIO
Pronouns: she, her, hers

Nadia is a senior at Los Altos High School with a passion for empowering children and teenagers. She is the founder of the 501(c)3 nonprofit organization TeenzTalk and the author of the children's book Growing a Brain. Nadia was inspired to start a peer movement in order to build a community of compassionate teens and mental health activists who are educated on how to be well and prioritize wellness, after her own experience with aiding in the prevention of a close friend's suicide.

In her free time, she enjoys hanging out with her three younger siblings, journaling, listening to Nicki Minaj songs, and practicing tennis.
