Meet the Officers
President - Nadia Jorgenson
Hello! My name is Nadia and I am the current president of the ISPE student chapter at CU and an undergraduate senior in the Chemical and Biological Engineering program. I joined ISPE to build my professional network and explore what options are available to me in industry. The educational events, panels, and networking experiences have been invaluable to my career development, as well as the wonderful connections I have made. My primary goal is to bridge the divide between academia and industry for students interested in that path!
