Stella is a junior at Casa Grande High School in Petaluma, California. She first got involved with CASC in her freshman year, inspired by her mom’s longtime involvement in the organization. The welcoming community she found encouraged her to stay, and through CASC she has grown in confidence, strengthened her academic skills, and discovered what it means to be a successful leader. Now, as Region 3 President, she is excited to give back to the organization that has given her so much by helping others grow and creating meaningful change within her community. In her free time, Stella loves to spend time with friends, go for hikes, play volleyball, and watch TV.
