Welcome back to Pathways. I was very privileged to have a chat with Ms. Wan Nadiah, the president of the Harvard Club of Malaysia.

Usually, Nadiah interviews people - and it's quite the opposite when someone interviews Nadiah, so this was a very special privilege. It was a wonderful chance to chat with an incredibly sharp and generally just incredible person, to learn about her experiences at Harvard, to consider the question of whether studying at Harvard will make you a CEO, and to do a nice deep dive into the meaning of education in the context of a society that is broadly a collective, as well as to think about the interdisciplinary, multifaceted nature of the health concerns that ultimately underpin society in modern day and age. It was also a wonderful chance to learn a little bit about the Harvard interview, to ask in, as we say in Malaysia, kepo a bit about the Harvard class of 2028, and to peek into the world of the Harvard Club of Malaysia, even if it was only just for a little bit.

Thank you so much for the wonderful conversation, Nadiah, and it was an honor to chat with you!
