Bio

Hometown: Cincinnati, Ohio

Nina is majoring in chemical engineering and minoring in political science. She is on the Operations Leadership Team for the Women in Engineering (WiE) Program. Outside of WiE, she is a chemical engineering ambassador and works for the Davidson School of Chemical Engineering. This past summer, Nina worked as a research and development intern at Procter & Gamble. In her free time, Nina loves singing, reading, watching Purdue sports and spending time with family and friends!

"My favorite part about being involved in WiE is empowering young women to pursue engineering! I remember how nervous I was to go into a male-dominated field, and I always wondered how supported I would be. Working in WiE, I can help young women feel confident in their choice of engineering and help them realize that Purdue is the place for them!"
