Estrellita Gonzalez was first elected as a trustee in the October 2017 by-election and elected again to the Vancouver School Board in October 2018. She is a parent to a secondary school student who attends Eric Hamber and is also a small business owner, author and wellness educator. Estrellita has a Bachelor of Business Administration and 20 years of senior management and corporate experience. Today, she provides wellness, HR and Marketing consulting services, and in 2012 launched a Vancouver-based wellness centre.  Estrellita is committed to supporting the well-being of Vancouver students. She believes the Board must work collaboratively to ensure that all students have the opportunity to reach their full potential and are well-served by a School District that meets their needs and prepares them for a life with options and bright futures.
