Jacquelyn E. Nixon is a true "Hidden Figure," working tirelessly to raise awareness that radon exposure can lead to lung cancer, advance radon reduction policies, and help prevent radon-induced lung cancer. When Jackie found out that her lung cancer was due to radon, she was told that there was nothing she could do about it. But Jackie refused to believe it, and subsequently built an international awareness publication off of one, "NO." Jackie is unstoppable as she mentors advocates as well as works to educate the public and private sectors about the hazards of living, working, and attending school in environments with elevated levels of radon gas. She inspires us to be creative and think about different ways to engage others to prevent people from unnecessary radon exposure.
