Ella Lopes

Ella is 16 years old living in Ottawa, Ontario. She is a student of Notre Dame High School, currently in grade 11.

She’s half Algonquin and half Portuguese, and a proud member of The Algonquins of Pikwakanagan (pr. pick-WOK-nah-gone) First Nation. She has been a creative writer since the age of 10.

Her favourite form of writing is poetry, but short stories are next in line. Most of her writing evolves around Indigenous topics and she had been eager to share her writing with the world for a long time.
