My name is Shira and I'm in grade 12 at UHill. I've always been amazed by astronomy, physics, and engineering. In my free time, I like watching old horror movies, rocket launches, and listening to music (I love Taylor Swift and the Arctic Monkeys). Currently, I am working towards a Level 1 High-Power Rocketry certification! I am excited to take action on giving women a safe space to love STEM!
My name is Alina and I’m grade 11 at uhill secondary. When I’m not busy baking or reading, I enjoy spending time with my friends. For several years now, I’ve been marvelled by the ins and outs of science, especially chemistry and geology. As one of the presidents of the club, I’m so happy and proud to be able to share this experience to self-identifying girls with similar interests of mine!
I am Nupur and I'm a 12th-grade student at Uhill. My classes of interest are theatre and biology. Acting is one of my passions as it allows me to express many different emotions throughout a scene. I also enjoy attending seminars that describe what the various health professions entail. We must speak out given that healthcare access is often restricted, especially for women in other countries. I'm glad that I can encourage the next generation to pursue STEM fields as well as provide a voice in the field.
My name is Ana and I am in grade 11 at Uhill. I enjoy learning about science and sharing the wonders of science with people through the Lovelace Foundations Club’s workshops. I believe in pushing for equality in STEM and making STEM education more accessible for self-identifying girls. I hope through the Lovelace Foundation self-identifying girls can nurture their brilliant minds and explore STEM out of curiosity, as a passion, or as a future career. Outside of my time at the Lovelace Foundation Club, I do theatre, I love to cook, and read books.
My name is Elaine and I'm in grade 11 at Uhill. I love arts, like painting, drawing, and dancing (when I'm not stressing over my coursework). I've always had a fascination with astrophysics, and biology is probably one of my favourite subjects. I'm super happy to be part of the team, and I love that I can help spread STEM to girls.
Hi, I’m Grace Chen a grade 12 at Uhill! As a kid, I’ve always been intrigued by science whether that was going to the aquarium or learning about bacteria inside the classroom. In my spare time, I enjoy watching films with friends and I absolutely adore listening to music (I will listen to anything but country music I apologize to country music fans).
Hi! I’m Alex! I use they/them/theirs pronouns. I love all plants, R&B music and making jewelry. I love all aspects of biology (especially human and plant cells). My favourite activity with Lovelace was getting to introduce aspects of coding to young children and watching them go through a scientific process.
