I am 16 year old Dana Ingram and excited to be your United States of America's Teen Wisconsin 2025. I am currently a junior in high school with aspirations of being a youth correctional officer. I have participated in programs like Upward Bound and currently at COA Youth & Family Center as a teen Leader. This position allows me to Empower, Inspire, and Uplift youth in my community to strive to fulfill their maximum potential and be positive impacts in their community. 

Part of impacting my community is done through my volunteer work. During the past year, I have volunteered at different organizations providing food through hot meal and food pantry organizations. I have come to realize the need for food in my community especially with the rising food costs. I am bringing awareness to this issue through my platform Stomp Out Hunger. My platform informs people of the need, how to get involved, and being an active volunteer for the Hunger Task Force, Inc. in Milwaukee. 

In my spare time. I enjoy spending time with my pets that my family affectionately calls "The Zoo". The Zoo consists of three cats, a gerbil. a rabbit. and a snake.
