[[File:Nadia.jpg|thumb|right]]<span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Nadia Gathers is a feminist, like everyone should be. When not actively overthrowing the patriarchy, she is a student at Converse College, where she designed the institution's first Social Entrepreneurship curriculum.</span>

<span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 17px;">Nadia has created a nationally recognized action plan to increase&nbsp;</span><span style="line-height: 17px;">gender diversity in executive suites while increasing profit margins alongside the benefit corporation, </span>''Womenetics''<span style="line-height: 17px;">. She's worked with Buffalo, New York tech start-ups to do the not-so-glamorous dirty work of starting a business. She helped create the nation's first environmentally responsive, permanent outdoor video installation, The Front Yard. She's been a facilitator at&nbsp;workshops for at-risk high school students, and&nbsp;coached an all-girls basketball team to a co-ed league championship. Most notably, she once taught a second grader how to read.&nbsp;</span></span>

<span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Nadia is passionate about catalyzing social movements on a local level. She has worked with numerous organizations, including Z80 Technology Incubator, Girl Develop It, and Every Person Influences Children, and the Burchfield Penney Art Center.&nbsp;She is a champion of urban landscapes, a writer, a runner, and makes a mean cup of tea.</span>
