My name is Zainab Nathani and I am a high school junior from Niles, Illinois with a deep interest in water sustainability and environmental science. I’ve led local initiatives to raise awareness and support for clean water access, and I also conduct research on water purification and harvesting technologies. Outside the lab, I enjoy playing flag football, wrestling, and leading STEM efforts at my school. I want to be a Water Challenge Ambassador to help empower my community with knowledge and inspire youth to take action on today’s most urgent water challenges.
