CHAPTER OFFICER TEAM
JULISSA R.
President
Hi everyone! My name is Julissa Reyes and I am your Chapter President for this year. I am a senior at Southwest High School. I have been in FFA for four years and have served as Chapter Sentinel for one year and the President for two years. I also have served as the Imperial Section Treasurer and this year, I serve as the Imperial Section Reporter. Some of my hobbies include: showing market swine, heifers, and even a duck. I enjoy being around my family and my friends. After highschool, I plan on attending IVC for two years and transfer to University of Arizona for two more years before becoming an agriculture teacher. I can’t wait to see what this year has to offer and I am beyond thankful for spending my four years of high school in FFA.
