Small Moments... Stronger Minds

Founder & Executive Director, Hasene DeviNirmalraj

Hasene is a Junior at Centreville High School who is passionate about neuroscience, community service, and making a difference in the lives of others. Through her experiences volunteering with older adults and working with children, she discovered how powerful simple moments of connection, play, and learning can be. This inspired her to create MindMoments and share her passion for brain health with her community. Outside of MindMoments, Hasene enjoys music, classical Indian dance, and exploring her interests in science
