ABOUT CHLOE:

Hey! I'm Chloe, new chapter leader for the Bellaire chapter at PEA! I've always had a passion for doing numerous sports including lax, volleyball, basketball, soccer, tennis, etc. At the moment I'm participating in two sports at the AAU level, volleyball and basketball. I also enjoying being an Evelyn's Park Teen Ambassador as well as helping people through being a blood donor, making cards regularly for hospitalized people, and volunteering at Houston Food Bank. My goal is to help reduce teens' anxiety through doing physical activities that strengthen our Bellaire community as a whole.

ABOUT ANNIKA:

Heyy!! I’m Annika and your new Cypress chapter leader. As an honors student, I often find myself surrounded by a toxic and stressful environment, which can take a toll on my mental health. However, my involvement in two sports (swim and tennis) has been a saving grace. These activities provide me with a much-needed break from the pressures of school and allow me to recharge. I believe that my school could greatly benefit from offering more opportunities for students to engage in sports in an stress-free environment. Providing such an environment would greatly enhance the well-being of our student body. Ultimately, I hope to help reduce teen stress and anxiety through promoting physical activities and strengthen the Cypress community as a whole.

ABOUT BROOKLYN: Hey there!  My name is Brooklyn and I am the Fulshear chapter leader—the first middle school chapter of PEA.

ABOUT THALIE: Hello! I’m Thalie, the chapter leader for the Memorial chapter at PEA! I’m really into helping teen mental health since I’m also a part of the Mental Health Society Racing For Wellness fundraising program. I think most teens, including myself, have felt the pressures that come with being in high school. That’s why I think hanging out and making new friends can relieve anxious thoughts. Through enjoyable, bonding exercises, I believe I can help destress teens in my community. My goal at PEA is to spread positive vibes and relieve stress through fun activities and socialization!

ABOUT GENEVIEVE: Hi! My name is Genevieve (Ginny) Del Campo and I'm the new chapter leader for the Southwest chapter of PEA. Physical fitness has been really impactful in my life, and I am so excited to have the opportunity to share it with others. I've played many sports such as basketball and soccer, but my primary interest is weightlifting. The gym helps me work through my emotions, improve my focus and feel more comfortable in my own skin. I hope to help others realize the benefits of exercise on their physical and mental well-being.

ABOUT SHENGZE: Hi! My name is Shengze and I’m the chapter leader for West U. I’ve been playing sports since I was little, and I currently play soccer and golf, and I go to the gym. Every time I’m playing sports I feel like the stress of school and other things are lifted off my shoulders and I can just have fun and enjoy myself. I believe that sports not only make you happier but can also help you find a great community and new friends. My goal is to provide the opportunity for this to happen, with both sports-related and social activities. I hope to give teens in West U a sense of community and improve both their physical and mental health.

ABOUT KEVIN: Hello, I’m Kevin Hu and I’m a co-chapter leader of the West U Chapter with Shengze Lai. I believe physical and mental health are two important things for everybody’s development and that improving these two aspects of one’s life should be a priority. Although I don’t play sports anymore, I often go to the gym throughout the week to stay physically active. The West U Chapter often hosts sports in the West U area because playing sports is a great way to improve not only physical health, but mental health as it is fun and physically demanding. With Shengze, I hope to help people in the West U area enjoy themselves while also staying healthy by playing sports and doing fun activities.
