I've had the exceptionally wonderful opportunity to engage with Nahjae through the Black Diplomats Academy, where he is a fellow of the program. Nahjae is a brilliant young leader whose knowledge, coupled with sociability makes him easily endearing to those around him. It has been a pleasure for me to meet Nahjae and to contribute to his career trajectory as a Global changemaker! Candies Kotchapaw Black Diplomats Academy Founder

Mr. Nunes is a rarity in academia. Nahjae is the ideal student in that he is eloquent, possesses impeccable writing skills and bleeds volunteerism and student leadership. An advisor to the United Nations from a young age, his interests are extraordinary for his age group. He is reliable and manages his time well in order to be very active on campus, giving 110%. He is an excellent Master of Ceremonies and is always well prepared for any task that is given to him. His moral decorum and work ethic makes it easy to recommend him as he is always an asset to whomever would require his services.
