Ms. Tamilore Dairo

Tami Dairo is a high school student at Gwinnett School of Mathematics, Science and Technology (GSMST) who is passionate about solving community and global challenges through hands-on leadership. She has served in several leadership capacities right from her elementary school days as the school Arbitrator at Cedar Hill Prep. Tami was the Secretary of Student Council at Five Forks Middle school and has been on the Teen Advisory Council of Gwinnett County Public Library, Five Forks branch since 2017 to date where she also volunteered as a Mathematics tutor for elementary and middle school kids.

She has a strong interest in global social issues, hence her membership in Model United Nations where she serves as a Junior Officer. Tami’s trip to Nigeria with her immigrant parents when she was in middle school exposed her to school pupils from less privileged families and she was amazed at the difference between educational, financial, and technological opportunities available for children in the United States and the developing world. This experience helped shaped her interest and commitment to United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal 4 (Quality Education) and Goal 5 (Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment) which ultimately led her to found Girls Tower High Inc., a non-profit organization incorporated in the state of Georgia.
