\"Isa<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n

Name:<\/strong>\u00a0Isabella \u201cIsa\u201d Pryde<\/p>\n

Age:<\/strong>\u00a0I am 15 and currently a freshman at Beacon High School in New York City.<\/p>\n

Hometown:<\/strong>\u00a0New York, New York, USA<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

\n
\n

Secret Super Power:<\/strong>\u00a0Advocating for women\u2019s rights. (Well, maybe not so super-secret.) My friends are always like \u201cOh my gosh, Isa is talking about the gender wage gap again.\u201d If I ever get to choose a topic for a project, I choose women\u2019s rights. It\u2019s a serious subject and one I want to pursue more as I grow up.<\/p>\n

Random Factoid:<\/strong>\u00a0My parents are both from New Zealand, giving me an international viewpoint at home.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s Next For Me:<\/strong>\u00a0Getting through high school. It\u2019s a big shift from middle school, what with making new friends and learning new subjects. But I\u2019ll still actively participate in Global Nomads\u2019 Content Creation Lab as much as I can and hopefully become an intern coordinator.<\/p>\n

My Favorite Thing About Global Nomads:<\/strong>\u00a0Everyone meets on the same level at Global Nomads. Everyone takes my ideas into consideration; no one makes me feel like I\u2019m just a dumb little kid. We all are treated as equals.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"Rainy<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n

Name:<\/strong>\u00a0Rainy Lu<\/p>\n

Age:<\/strong>\u00a0I\u2019m 16 years old and in grade 11 at Bishop Strachan School, Toronto.<\/p>\n

Hometown:<\/strong>\u00a0Shanghai, China<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

\n
\n

Secret Super Power:<\/strong>\u00a0Being an interpreter for my parents. My very first English-language email was to hire a plumber and communicate with him while he did work. It was quite the adventure for a middle-schooler, but I realized I\u2019m really good at it.<\/p>\n

Random Factoid:<\/strong>\u00a0I had never seen snow before I moved to Toronto. Now I live somewhere with winter for half the year!<\/p>\n

What\u2019s Next For Me:<\/strong>\u00a0I plan to continue improving my English through schoolwork and my experience with Global Nomads. From then I hope to go on to college and study biomedical engineering in college.<\/p>\n

My Favorite Thing About Global Nomads:<\/strong>\u00a0As a multicultural group in the Content Creation Lab, we bring our own experiences and take in a more social-historical way of thinking. For example, when developing the architectural curriculum, we focused on how the presence of architecture both shapes and is shaped by the communities it serves. It really opens up your mind to many ways of thinking.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"Azaria<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n

Name:<\/strong>\u00a0Azaria Mosby<\/p>\n

Age:<\/strong>\u00a0I am 20 and currently a sophomore at Hampton University in Hampton, Virginia.<\/p>\n

Hometown:<\/strong>\u00a0Petersburg, Virginia, USA<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

\n
\n

Secret Super Power:<\/strong>\u00a0Versatility! I\u2019m in an intense five-year architecture masters program, I\u2019m also an intern coordinator at Global Nomads, and I\u2019m trying to become fluent in Spanish and Italian. All of this takes careful planning and adapting to different roles quickly.<\/p>\n

Random Factoid:<\/strong>\u00a0Faith was really important to me growing up and I was very involved in our church. I was part of the church choir and even president of the youth ministry at one point.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s Next For Me:<\/strong>\u00a0Definitely more studying. I hope to learn as much as I can about architecture and choose a discipline in that field to focus on. After college I would love to work at an architectural firm in a big city and find some time to travel abroad.<\/p>\n

My Favorite Thing About Global Nomads:<\/strong>\u00a0Global Nomads programs are a fun way of learning about the world. They teach you leadership and organizational skills. You get to play teacher while also learning about other people and cultures at the same time. They really prepare you for the professional world and set you up for success.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
