Background

About Lea Wilson

With over 20 years of experience in education, I have a passion for empowering and inspiring young people across the Virgin Islands. As the founder and president of EMPOWER VI Youth Initiative, I lead a nonprofit that promotes self-awareness, active engagement, mentoring, and community building among diverse groups of students. We create exciting opportunities where imaginations are stretched, passion is ignited, and possibilities are uncovered. In addition, I founded EMPOWER Esports VI, a unique venture that fosters a Virgin Islands esports ecosystem that encourages learning, builds positive relationships, and creates new pathways for young people. Through this initiative, I leverage my expertise in social emotional learning, equity, inclusion, and innovation to transform the gaming landscape and provide meaningful experiences for students and educators alike. My goal is to transform lives and shape the future through innovative education. If you share these values and see potential in collaborative efforts, please connect with me here on LinkedIn. Together, we can drive meaningful change in the Virgin Islands, and I'm excited to explore what we can achieve.
