Odia Kane is a graduate of the Engineering and Science University Magnet School, where she published a novel every year of her high school career except for her senior year. (Available at www.amazon.com.) The lack of a senior year publication may have been because she was spending that time producing a documentary on food injustice and insecurity in New Haven, CT, from which she hails. In producing this documentary she worked with psychologists, nutritionists, health experts, and food scientists. She gained experience in production her freshman year when she created videos on health and fitness for Michelle Obama’s Let’s Move campaign. Odia has also interned at the Yale Cardiovascular Research Center in the neurology department, and plans to major in cognitive science with a minor in neuroscience.
