Georgeanna has been working to curate our Summer Conference in June!

Georgeanna Cannon is a senior at Missouri State University pursuing a BA in Political Science with a double minors in History and French. Originally from the city of Los Angeles, Georgeanna now calls Springfield, Missouri home. Her initial draw to climate advocacy came from personal fears regarding the future of the planet. By embracing climate advocacy, Georgeanna discovered its power to unite diverse voices in conversations about the future of sustainable living.

As a National Events Intern, Georgeanna plays an important role in organizing CCL’s upcoming Summer Conference slated for this June. She collaborates with various departments in CCL, liaises with potential speakers and congressional members, and will attend the conference herself to see through its operations. Beyond the responsibility, Georgeanna sees her role as an opportunity for personal and professional growth. She aims to gain insights into grassroots non profit organizations, enhance her project management skills, and deepen her knowledge as a young advocate. Prior to, and at the conference, she hopes to develop her relationship with CCL staff.

Apart from her involvement with CCL, Georgeanna is an active member of Phi Eta Sigma and The National Society for Leadership and Success. In her downtime, she enjoys reading a good book, listening to music (Beyonce is her favorite), and attending ballet classes! She’s a big fan of entertainment like the Princess Bride and Bob’s Burgers. We are so excited to see Georgeanna’s hard work come to life this summer!
