Ellen is President of Students for Life on her campus where she leads her group in their initiatives to support pregnant and parenting students, spread awareness on the issue of abortion, and engage in public policy. Ellen successfully defended her Students for Life group’s First Amendment rights when her administration attempted to condition the group’s speech in the form of “trigger warnings”.

With the help of Alliance Defending Freedom, Ellen filed a lawsuit against her university and was successful in changing several administrative policies concerning speech on campus. Ellen speaks on First Amendment issues across the country and recently spoke alongside President Trump as he signed an executive order regarding free expression on college campuses. Ellen is passionate about life and liberty, and plans to continue fighting for these issues in her career.
