“I’ve known Mrs. Nath for 7 years and she continues to amaze me with her incredible work ethic, leadership, and drive to truly make change. While being an expert in the fields of science and education, Mrs. Nath is so kind and empathetic as a person, always there to mentor and encourage the students and colleagues around her. To know her is to love her!”
Anivarya Kumar, Former student.
Presently: Medical student at Duke University.
"Developing the Sensehydro LLC with Mrs. Nath taught me a lot of things about business and research. First of all, we had to make an LLC and for that we had to apply for a patents to get grants and a lot of paperwork we figured out how to do. That’s all necessary for the real world. We also went to a business incubation class and that helped us how to advertise our product and how to get it out to the market. As for Research, we learnt about even if you are making a product , you have to test it and make exactly sure that it does exactly how you advertise and make sure that it benefits the user. We had to measure the temperature properly and other factors to make sure that we were safe and not vulnerable to heat stroke."

“My name is Nevan and I had Mrs. Nath as a teacher for my freshman year of Honors Biology and later in my senior year in biotechnology. By that point though, it was really odd to think of Mrs. Nath as a teacher as she was unlike any other teacher I have ever had. I mean, she was constantly inspiring and simply igniting passion in every student that entered her door, helping out with various projects and research opportunities. Personally, she single-handley inspired me to get involved in scientific research, helping me get connected with professors at universities, get hands-on experience in labs, and overall lead me to my passion and love for science."

"I wanted to let you know how grateful I am to Mrs. Nath because in the senior year of high School, I expressed the desire to be part of something bigger and I wasn't exactly sure where to find the resources for that. She reached out to me and connected me with professors in a variety of fields, officials, city council members or anyone that can give me perspective on community service and to give back . She helped me through the creative design process and with her I learnt about picking a sustainable team, collaborating, critiquing and a variety of things of that part of the creative design process. I am so grateful to have this experience and exposure so early in my career and it greatly helped me in my college and in my workplace. So thank you so much Mrs. Nath."
