Hi everyone! My name is Ella and I have been vegan since 2019, vegetarian for 4 years before that. I didn’t grow up with family who supported my decision and as someone from the South of U.S. some were offended as meat products are very much a staple of the southern diet, but over time I helped change their perspective to the point where they now have most of their meals without meat. I am so thankful to see so many like-minded and passionate people advocating for a kinder and more sustainable world! I’ve been bodybuilding since 2023 and really enjoy sharing plant- based meals and recipes with other competitors and people to show my friends and family that we can grow just as strong and aesthetic as non-vegans, all while being healthier for it! ☺️ I look forward to getting to know all of you! 🌱🫶
