About Me

My Name is Nihal Pathuri.

I am a student leader, researcher, and environmental advocate dedicated to bridging the gap between human progress and nature’s survival. My journey is driven by a deep care for animals and the environment, which I put into action through diverse leadership and volunteer roles.

As the Director of Advocacy for SDG Champions, I lead community service initiatives including environmental advocacy, cleanups, and food drives. My commitment to wildlife is hands-on; I serve as an Animal Care and Exhibit Steward at the Heard Museum, where I help maintain exhibits and care for animals.

Through BiodiversityBridge.com, I am combining my scientific background with my leadership experience to show my community that sustainability is not just a global necessity—it’s a personal benefit that improves our health, our homes, and our future.

Evolutionary Ecosystems: I am currently developing a comprehensive, 4,000+ word research paper intended for high-impact publication. Scientific Depth: I am collaborating with a Immunology Subject Matter Expert and Creative Lab Writer to articulate the intricate science of fossilized melanosomes.
