President: Liberty Moyers

After graduation, her goal is to use her skills learned in DECA to study marketing at The Ohio State University. 

Liberty decided to run for office to give members countless opportunities to find their inner leaders and grow. She has found a home in DECA and wants others to have that same connection with this amazing organization. After a year of many obstacles, Liberty wants to work with the other talented officers to lead Ohio DECA towards a year full of many successes, where each and every member can confidently say that this year was one to remember.

Vice President: Alexis Holdren

Alexis Holdren is currently a junior at Sycamore High School and has the chance to participate in DECA through their Great Oaks program. She entered the marketing program because she saw all of the great opportunities the class provided and fell in love immediately. Alexis plays varsity water polo at Sycamore and is also on the regional USA team for archery independently, where she has placed high not only nationally but internationally. She is not certain about what she wants to study in college, but marketing and business is a major interest for her.

Alexis initially ran for state officer because her advisor picked her out and saw her as a promising candidate. As only a second-year DECA student, she wants to go into the year working as hard as possible to make her advisor and chapter proud.

A quote Alexis likes to keep in mind is by Ralph Waldo Emerson, saying "All of life is an experiment. The more experiments you make, the better".
