Meet the Region 9 Officers

Madison Carr, Region 9 President / Reporter, is a sophomore at Newbury Park High School. Her interest in FHA-HERO was sparked in Foods and Nutrition class, where she served as class representative to the FHA-HERO executive council. She was instrumental in the production of the chapter activities manual and the stocking stuffers for a needy family project. As region president, Madison will focus on increasing membership and member involvement so more students can benefit from FHA-HERO. Madison is on the NPHS varsity swim and water polo teams, supports family and neighbors with babysitting services and is interested in a career related to culinary arts.

Ryan Ranieri, Region 9 Vice President / Secretary, is a senior at Fountain Valley High School. Ryan has participated in FHA-HERO CRE Salad Preparation, taking third place at State. He took part in a knife skills competition held at Cypress College. Ryan is well on his way to realize his career goal to be a chef since he is already working at a restaurant with increasing food preparation responsibilities. Ryan is a volunteer for marathons, handing out water to the runners. He believes being a region officer will help him become a better leader and take control of his future plans to be a chef.

Bonnie Casillas, Region 9 Treasurer / Historian, is a senior at Paramount High School where she also serves as local FHA-HERO Chapter and Associated Student Government Presidents. Her time as an active FHA-HERO member has given her unforgettable memories and ever-lasting friendships. She won first place at State CREs in Community Service Project and gold metal in that event at the FCCLA National STAR Event competition held in Chicago in July, 2010. Bonnie’s goal is to encourage more students to fully involve themselves in FHA-HERO as she has done for career preparation, leadership development and to gain skills for a successful life. Bonnie’s career interest is to become a lawyer. .
