Ella Sampou
Community Organizing ManagerRaised on the Cape, Ella has returned to the peninsula and dedicated herself to being the change she wants to see in her community. She graduated from Skidmore College in 2017 with a B.A. in Environmental Studies and has since held a variety of roles that fall at the intersection of healthy communities and healthy ecosystems. She has experience in agriculture and aquaculture, land conservation, community and youth climate organizing, and education. She is currently working on a Master’s in Degrowth Economics. In her free time, she enjoys making art, and spending as much time outside as possible.
In her role as a Community Organizer, Ella works closely with the Director of Housing Advocacy to conduct outreach, base building, training, education, and leadership development among our Lower Cape community.
