  • Eleanor Jackson

    Eleanor (Ella) Jackson grew up in Houston, Texas. She graduated from Colby College in 2019 with a BA in Global Studies and a minor in Creative Writing. After graduation, she packed up her bags and moved to Washington, D.C. where she joined the World Resources Institute’s (WRI's) Urban Mobility team and began working on vehicle electrification projects in the United States, Latin America, and Asia. She spent the majority of this time researching the intersections of vehicle electrification and environmental justice in the United States for WRI's Electric School Bus Initiative. She then built out both student and teacher engagement workstreams to bring the project closer to those most impacted by the transition. She plans to continue working to accelerate the climate transition in a way that acknowledges, addresses, and corrects injustice. At Stanford, Ella plans to learn how to weave together narratives and data to share impactful stories and to build connections between communities both locally and globally.
