Nika
Founded a national nonprofit - and published a children's book
The Story
Nika had a clear sense of what was missing. Moving through STEM spaces, she noticed the same pattern repeating: minority students underrepresented, underserved, and without the support systems that could change that. She founded STEM Clinicians (originally The White Coat Project) as a direct response. The organization's goal is to reduce disparity in STEM fields for minorities. Building on this, Nika also channeled her creativity into a second project: she wrote and published "The Adventures of a Tiny Tooth," a children's book that makes learning fun for young readers, showing the same range that defines Personify students.
