She is interested in engaging environmental and socio-political activism through Architectural design.

“�������� has opened so many doors and opportunities for me,” Sader said. “Representing �������� in the HKS South-East fellowship is an honor and is the least I could do to give back to �������� has offered me. Being involved in the fellowship is very important to me because it will teach us, as students, what it means to be designing architecture for purpose. It is enabling us to challenge ourselves into finding solutions for problems of poverty that are very prominent today and our near future.”
