Elena was born and raised in Long Beach CA. She comes from a strong Catholic family. In 2021 she joined both the St. Hedwig Church Young Adults Group and a Bible Study Group. She enjoys these groups as they help her grow strong in her relation to God and our Parish. She cultivates that relationship by praying the Rosary and going more often to daily Mass.
Elena has a dog, Charlie, whose constant attention and companionship gives her great joy.
The past few years she has worked at a few different jobs before joining St. Hedwig as a parish office receptionist in October 2024. It gives her great pleasure to be able to give back to her Church and to help the parishioners that come into the office.
