Currently pursuing a B.A. in Political Science at Barnard College of Columbia University and specializing in international relations and environmental policy, Nancy is dedicated to bridging the gap between climate, race, and education policy. Her work with AAPI rights organizations has fueled her commitment to amplifying underrepresented voices in climate advocacy.
