E94: Ellie Potischman - The teenage Voice

At 17 years old, Ellie Potischman is making it clear that the teenage voice matters and that it brings a perspective that the world should simply not ignore. In her blog, The Teenage Voice, Ellie is not afraid to raise her voice and share the teenage perspective on some very difficult issues, such as depression, energy conservation, the Holocaust and sexual abuse to name a few. Ellie is an inspiration not only to the younger crowd but also to the adults that haven't mustered the courage to speak up and try to make a difference in the world.

Ellie lives in Northern New Jersey with her parents, sister and dog Stella.
