McKenna Cooper
Hi Gilroy FFA! I’m Isabella, and this year I have the pleasure of serving as your Chapter President. I’ve been involved in FFA for five years now, and it’s been such a meaningful journey—one that’s allowed me to build a strong, supportive community here at Gilroy.
Throughout my time in FFA, I’ve had the opportunity to attend several conferences, participate in Cooperative Marketing and El Credo, and show a variety of animals at fair. Outside of FFA, I love dancing, traveling, and spending quality time with the people I care about most.
My favorite part of FFA is the chance to connect with like-minded individuals and be part of a community filled with passionate, inspiring people who are always willing to support and educate one another.
This year, I’m especially excited to advocate for agriculture and help give each of you the encouragement you need to grow—not just in FFA, but as individuals. I’m so excited for what this year holds, Gilroy!
