Diya was chosen to represent her 2018 Middle School graduating class in the Academy for Science and Design as a role model in STEM. As a freshman in Nashua High School South, Diya's passion and interest in technology and STEM led her to be nominated by her High School as a STEM advocate for Women and Late Bloomers for a High School Tedx like talk which was broadcasted by the Nashua ETV. Diya was also part of the Nashua High School South Innovations Club. As part of the Innovations Club team, Diya and her team developed a mobile app for School Safety which would help with early detection of school shootings and other threats.
