Meet the 2024 Facilitators
Kyle - Lead Facilitator
My name is Kyle and I am from Santa Clara County. I am one of the Facilitator Teen Leads for the State Leadership Conference. Throughout my over twelve years in 4-H, I have had so many positive experiences, which keeps fueling my drive and passion for 4-H. I’m excited to start my term as a California 4-H State Ambassador at SLC. I can't wait to meet you all!
Sharva - Lead Facilitator
Hello! My name is Sharva. I am from Alameda County and one of the Facilitator Teen Leads. This will be my second year at SLC and I am so excited! I have learned so much in 4-H and can’t wait for this year's SLC. In 4-H, I have gotten the chance to participate in many events such as the Virtual Youth Summit, Presentation Day, and various project meetings that I held in my club. I am an upcoming County Ambassador for Alameda County. I love to play sports and help with environmental stewardship. See y'all at SLC!!
Fynn
My name is Fynn. My favorite parts of 4-H are the livestock projects and leadership. I have served in many leadership positions in both my club and county. This year, I am one of the San Mateo County 4-H Ambassadors which has given me the opportunity to work with many youth and lead events. I am excited to get to know everyone at SLC!
Gianna
My name is Gianna from Riverside County. I have been involved in 4-H for 9 years since I was 8 years old and from there I evolved to enjoy taking the lead in 4-H projects and committees. Currently. I am a Riverside County Ambassador and will be a counselor for the Riverside County 4-H camp for the fourth time this summer. My favorite project is Archery. I am the Range Officer and teach members how to shoot a bow and arrow. I am excited to go to SLC because I will be reunited with my friends from other counties that I met last SLC and I can experience new things!
Lana
My name is Lana. I have been in 4-H for about ten years now, first joining because my friend gave me a rabbit, whom I named Pepper. After moving into high school, I became more involved in leadership positions through community service in Madera County 4-H. My club’s engineering project is definitely one of my favorites, as I love tinkering around with tools while helping members. I will be starting my term as a California 4-H State Ambassador this coming year. I am looking forward to meeting and getting to know everyone at SLC!
Melody
My name is Melody. I am from Modoc County. This is my 9th year in 4-H and my 4th year as a County Ambassador. I've been involved in multiple livestock shows where I help to run the show or show my own livestock. My favorite project is the beef project. I love being able to watch my steer grow from a calf, knowing the hard work that I put into him is going to feed a family or a business. I'm super excited to be a facilitator and give younger 4-H members a great experience like the one I had!
Naomi
Hello, my name is Naomi, I am from San Joaquin County. I have been involved in 4-H for almost twelve years now. I have a strong passion for public speaking, theater, social justice, and leadership. I have worked as a counselor, facilitator, and at other camps and conferences in the past. I have been on a state committee called J.E.D.I. (Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion) for three years. My favorite project is theater. I thoroughly enjoy learning how to perform, along with meeting other youth who share my passions. I’m very excited about SLC and hope to make many friends and also learn more about facilitating. As someone who has been a participant at SLC in the past, I am very excited to work as a facilitator and give youth participants the same amount of joy I received after attending the State Leadership Conference.
Neha
My name is Neha. I have been part of 4-H for 5 years and have been leading the baking project in Dublin 4-H for over 3 years. I was recently selected as an Alameda County Ambassador and have been elected as Recording Secretary for my club for the 2024-25 4-H year. My favorite project is the Service Learning Project. I love learning about fundraising and finding new ways to give back to my community. I am very excited and can’t wait to meet everyone at SLC this year!
Shriya
Hello! My name is Shriya from Alameda County. I will be one of the Facilitator Teen Leads for this year! I love going on walks with my friends and listening to music! This will be my eighth year in 4H and I have learned so much from the program. I went to SLC last year as an attendee and I hope you all enjoy your time at the event just as much as I did.
Tylar
My name is Tylar. I started the 4-H program eight years ago at the age of nine. The 4-H program has taught me so much, with Leadership and Public Speaking being my Sparks, but don’t tell my goats that, they think they are the loves of my life! I am currently serving as one of the returning Butte County 4-H Ambassadors for the 2024-2025 program year. I am also super involved at my local high school and enjoy playing football and throwing during track season along with public speaking competitions in FFA! I am super excited to be a part of the SLC team and can not wait to see everyone there!!
