Empathetic, Ambitious, Dedicated

"I've come to believe that each of us has a personal calling that's as unique as a fingerprint - and that the best way to succeed is to discover what you love and then find a way to offer it to others in the form of service, working hard, and also allowing the energy of the universe to lead you."
-Oprah Winfrey

Nadine is a passionate student that has been in SLI for 6 years. Outside of rigorous academics, Nadine dedicates most of her time as a leader in her extracurriculars. As the ASB Vice President and president of three clubs (Interact, FASA, and Pre-Med Club), as well as the Area 11 Director for the Interact District 5170 Council (in charge of 9 Interact clubs/schools across 5 cities), she has raised tens of thousands of dollars for her school, waste systems in Thailand, and for funding medical and cultural club workshops. Passionate in public health, she was a Broadstreet Institute Intern for abortion data, and produced a public health campaign dedicated to the promotion of hepatitis B testing under Stanford University's Asian Liver Center. Moreover, she loves spending time at her jobs as a lifeguard, city and private swim instructor, and a cook at Chicken Meets Rice.

Whether it was asking for a microscope for her 8th birthday or winning multiple awards in Tech Challenge, FTC, Synopsys Science Fairs, and qualifying for CSEF, Nadine has fostered her love to create and found a passion in neurobiology, wishing to pursue the medical field and create a better future for underprivileged youth.
The 49ers STEM Leadership Institute (49ers SLI) provides multi-year, year-round academic support, STEM enrichment, skills training, and leadership opportunities to students in middle and high school.

The 49ers STEM Leadership Institute is made possible by the strong partnership between Silicon Valley Education Foundation, 49ers Foundation, Chevron, and the Santa Clara Unified School District.
