Bio

Hi! My name is Aniya Taneja and I'm a senior in high school. I will be majoring in biomedical engineering in Fall 2025 at Johns Hopkins University. With a passion for volunteering, advocating for Women in STEM, and with a love for science, I aspire to focus on research in women's health, aiming to mitigate the inequalities in studies that lead to misdiagnosis in women. I also hope to continue to inspire women, like I have with my Girls Who Code club in my town, into becoming leaders and founders, not just employees in the STEM field. I believe in taking leadership to the next level, making a positive impact on as many women as I can.
