About me
Hailing from Aotearoa/New Zealand, Ella has spent her life close to the coastline, building a lasting wonder for the world around her.
Ella achieved a B.Sc. in Environmental Science and Applied Conservation. During her degree she volunteered with a local waste wise community group, gaining knowledge in community organising and zero waste practices. Following her studies, Ella worked as an educator in the freshwater and marine spaces where and, for several years, she engaged with a variety of people to tackle environmental issues head on. Leading zero waste programs and building community connections with Elements has set Ella up well for her role as a Program Manager.
Alongside her work, Ella has been part of Forest & Bird Youth and has coached mountain biking. Working with enthusiastic environmental and outdoor individuals who inspire and support their peers has filled Ella's cup.
