Nina is a fourth-year Civil Engineering student who became a part of PUC because she was interested in understanding just how she could help others with her degree.

 

As the Assistant Project Manager, she helps out wherever she is needed! This semester Nina will be a Technical Assistant for Team India. She will be working on the electricity & wiring plan, coordinating technical advisor meetings, developing sacrificial scope, and identifying QA standards. ​

​

As the Social Impact/Culture Manager, she will create and manage the sustainability/maintenance plan for the community center, the community engagement plan, spearhead cultural/language research, and coordinate with the cultural advisor. 

​

Upon graduation, she plans to have a full-time job in the field of renewable energy or clean water.  She hopes to attend graduate school in a few years and pursue an environmental topic. International work would be amazing.

 

“I love helping people, and that's something I always want to keep central to my work. International work is also a good challenge because you have to understand different cultures and practices to succeed in other countries. PUC allows me to do both. I'm excited to be on this journey and become a better person through it.”
