I’m Elena, but you can call me Ella. I hold an undergraduate degree from Cal Poly Humboldt, where I studied the intricate relationships between the environment and human societies. 

My journey has taken me from the icy reaches of Alaska to the sandy shores of Spain, and now I’ve found my home in the beautiful Rose City, Portland, Oregon. Living in today’s world, it’s imperative to address the climate crisis—a challenge that impacts all of us. I believe that through education and collective action, we can work towards a more sustainable future.
