Nadia Francisco is an aspiring architect, writer and performing artist who believes that a little positivity can go a long way.

In addition to receiving a prestigious university scholarship, she has been an active participant in various events that include architectural competitions such as Transparence 2014 and NASA 2011 and dancing events such as Campus Jive NXG and the Epic show.
