In her junior year, Ella served as your Vice President of Northern California and was President of the NorCal District Action Team. Throughout this term, she led and connected with over 4,000 members, chapter officers, and other state officers at various events including chapter visits, districts, states, and leadership conferences. She promoted state-wide outreach and developed a robust 18-week curriculum to empower developing chapters, significantly expanding opportunities for members and bridging resource inequity across California DECA.
Outside of school, Ella is deeply committed to environmental research to promote equitable solar adoption across California. She also enjoys figure skating with her team for Team USA, as well as coaching little kids at her rink’s Learn-to-skate class! She is always down to try new food, go on drives with good music, hang out with friends, and explore new places.
In regards to her future aspirations, Ella aims to pursue a path that combines environmental science and entrepreneurship in college, then pursue a career in law. Ella is grateful for the support she has received through her DECA journey from her chapter, advisor, friends, and family, and is beyond thrilled for a great year as President of Team 75!
