Ellie Tsuchiya is currently a Community Organizer with the Georgia chapter of the National Asian Pacific American Women’s Forum (NAPAWF). In this role, she works directly with AAPI women and nonbinary folks in Georgia to build power at the grassroots level and advocate for policy and structural change around Reproductive Justice, Economic Justice, and Immigrant Rights. Ellie is also a strong arts advocate and has experience digitally organizing using arts and cultural strategies through a virtual community art project called MEND. In her previous role, she worked in regional economic development and was tapped to work on a collective impact initiative around diversity, equity, and inclusion. Ellie has a B.S. in Economics from Georgia Tech and a Certificate in Creative Placemaking from the New England College.
