BIOGRAPHY

Allison_Nguyen_Secondary1.PNG - Allison Nguyen.png
Vi Nguyen is a student from Santa Clara High who finds a deep passion for neuroscience and art. At a young age, they asked many questions about how people think, move, and process the world around them, resulting in deep investigation regarding cognitive sciences. Now, as a student aiming to move into a neuroscience field, they one day hope to work in occupational therapy to increase other's quality of life.

As the Co-Founder of the ASL Club and someone who contributed as a guitar-playing assistant for those with low hand dexterity, accessibility in all forms has always been of high priority to them, and they hope to create a more accessible world through each step they take.

Not only a student interested in science, they are very fond of the art projects they have worked on throughout their life. When they aren't studying, they enjoy drawing character's they've designed and building the world they live in through writing and illustration. Currently, they are working with a team to produce a web series they hope to perhaps create a show in the relatively far future.
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. Students, who are with the program for six years from 7th through 12th grade, commit annually to 300+ hours of program learning time in addition to their typical school hours. By cultivating student mastery in STEM subjects and in key skill areas, the program prepares students for college and empowers them to pursue their passions; so that they may become the well-rounded leaders of the future. 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.
