Avid Insider readers will remember that we ran an article about Girls Inc., a fun afterschool group for local girls (“Girls Inc. brings out the smart, strong and bold in local little ladies,” Nov. 11). Well, it just so happens that each month, the girls and staff choose a “Girl of the Month” who exemplifies their motto: “Strong. Smart. Bold.”
This month, that girl is Ella Mulari. We caught up with her and asked her some questions so you could get to know her. Check it out!
