Hi my name is Ella Drake. I am 17 years old and a senior at Jackson High School. I have been in JAGS for three years. Some of my favorite JAGS experiences are going to Costa Rica, volunteering at a no kill animal farm, and JAGSgiving. Some of my hobbies are cheerleading, travel, staying active, and hanging out with my friends and family. I am interested in the medical field and hope to one day become a doctor, but I am not sure what type yet.

My JAGS Journey
I chose JAGS because it seemed like a welcoming community and I felt like my values aligned with the core pillars of the JAGS program. I also joined because I felt like the students were more motivated to learn and create change in the world. I really liked that we get to go out into the world to further our education in the JAGS program and can also give back to our communities through service.
