Nadine's Story

What makes you a Difference Maker?

I believe that my passion and dedication to UM-Dearborn’s campus is what makes me a Difference Maker. I always try to find new and creative ways to get others involved in what I’m doing. I never shy away from a challenge and I always look to help others. 

Highlight your campus achievements:

  • Chancellor's Scholarship
  • William J. Branstrom Award Recipient
  • Dean's List 7 semesters 
  • Emerging Leader Certificate
  • Leadership Synergy Certificate
  • French Honors Convocation Award 3 times

Highlight your leadership experiences both on and off campus:

I’ve served as a senator for Student Government, as well as a member of the executive board for the Student Organization Advisory Council (SOAC), as the Athletics and Recreation Chair. I cofounded the student organization, UM-Dearborn Wishmakers, where I was the vice president my sophomore year, and since then, have been the president.

What is your dream career and/or long term life goal? 

I recently was admitted into the University of Michigan Medical School, where I hope to pursue my dream of becoming a doctor. Though I don’t know what kind of doctor I want to be just yet, I hope to one day continue my journey as a Wolverine by working for the University of Michigan Hospital. 

What was your most defining moment at UM-Dearborn? 

My most defining moment at UM-Dearborn was when my student organization, UM-Dearborn Wishmakers—an organization that is a chapter of Make-A-Wish, Michigan—raised and donated $4000 after two years of being active. It felt very rewarding to have donated to such a great cause after working extremely hard with my fellow students. I’ve met amazing people throughout my four-year journey on this campus, and I feel as though the friends I've made have become my second family.
