Nithin Jilla, a Star undergraduate research, was featured in the latest UC Irvine Magazine. The magazine showcases Jilla’s work with “Kenya Dream” — a program that fosters secondary education programs in Kenya by assisting with the creation and maintenance of educational infrastructure and resources.

“I got involved in Kenya Dream at Cupertino High School. When I came to UCI, I wanted to take it to the next level. So I went out there and tapped into the campus resources,” Jilla says. “I met with other student leaders, my hallmates and administrators in different departments, such as Student Affairs and dining, for help with organizing our events. The more I told people about Kenya Dream, the more they were in on it.”
