About Me
Amira Said
Biography
Hello! My name is Amira Said. I am a Senior majoring in Environmental Science at The University of Mary Washington. I spent most of my childhood in Northern Virginia, where I immigrated to from Egypt when I was seven years old. The environment and sustainability have always been a passion of mine, from when I was a little kid creating a compost pile in my backyard to now being a college student and implementing a community compost site on my campus. I have applied and received grants to aid the implementation of composting on campus.
I am elected Student Government Association President and Class of 2026 Treasurer. Additionally, I advocate for environmental policies and DEI programs as a selected member on the Student Advisory Committee for the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia.
In the future, I hope to advocate for and advise on Environmental Policies.
