Meaza Light-Orr is a senior at Crossroads School for the Arts and Sciences in Santa Monica. Meazi is an avid reader, equestrian, and lover of knitting, crocheting, and all things arts and crafts. Issues that she is passionate about and worked actively on are education equity and diversity of thought in change-making dialogue. In her pursuit of increasing education equity and access, she hosted an art auction, raising over $120,000 to build a middle school in her rural birth village of Kololo, Ethiopia. Additionally, she spent a semester in Washington D.C. writing writing policy recommendations presented at the Department of State and speaking with many leaders in a variety of different fields about their varying careers and the responsibilities of ethical leadership and commitment to integrity. She is invested in the communities she is a part of and is excited to further engage in actionable change and dialogue in her second time at the California Youth Leadership Summit.
