Nina Golder
Nina Golder is an introvert engineer turned global technology executive and mom of three with unwavering support from her husband, Drew. A Texas native and avid Longhorn, Nina found herself on the East Coast post-college where she met her Bostonian husband and eventually convinced him to settle in Austin over 13 years ago. Nina would describe herself as a recovering perfectionist, STEM and gender equality advocate, foodie, and organizer of chaos. She is fully in her competitive sports mom era and on weekends you can find her at Tumbling and Trampoline meets and soccer tournaments all over Texas or adventuring and discovering Austin gems with her outdoorsy family. Her daughters are exploring their limits as tweens ( 12 and 10) and her five year old son is teaching her about all things boy.
Nina is passionate about her involvement in the community and ensuring that education is a human right and building a strong pipeline of innovators and problem solvers through STEM education. She is actively involved with the Austin Science Education Foundation and Caring for Cambodia as a Board member as well as a champion for Girlstart programs. Nina’s other passion topics are the importance of self-care, authentic connection, and breaking things (from glass ceilings to generational cycles).
