Nile Rondon (he/him) is a Sociologist and Audio Mixer originally from St. Thomas, USVI and raised in Atlanta, GA. As a current resident of Brooklyn, NY, the four train commute to campus will be more than worth it!
The main topic he wants to uncover is how people cope after traumatic events. Groups of interest are survivors of Hurricane Irma, artists with debilitating injuries, and paramedics with mental illness. His goal is to emphasize similarities between groups that typically see their differences first.
He holds a Bachelor of Science in Sociology from Georgia Southern University and an Audio Technology Diploma from the School of Audio Engineering. Since graduating a decade ago, he has done field organizing for battleground elections, worked to fight climate change, and promoted physical wellness.
Following graduation, Nile intends to produce documentaries to bring light to disenfranchised communities. He finds it vital to spend life making a change for good and he’s grateful the OHMA program will nurture him to achieve that very goal.
