Meet our Team
Katherine Chen
My name is Katherine chen and I am the Co-Executive Director of March For Our Lives Houston. I joined MFOLH because a shooting at my school took the life of one of my classmates. I was angry at what happened and confused as to why adults didn’t seem to be doing anything different to prevent similar situations from happening. March for Our Lives has helped me redirect my anger and frustration to help prevent others from going through what I did.
Co-Executive director
GEORGE TATARIS
Hi! My name is George Tataris and I am the Co-Executive Director of MFOLH. I joined MFOLH during the midst of the pandemic, in May 2020. It seemed like there was something to be said and something to be done about all the American and Houstonian community had to endure and I had never felt like there was an easier and more effective way to get involved. Being the ED of MFOLH has been an unbelievable experience that has only strengthened my desire to be part of this amazing group of people and change the Houston community for the better.
Co-Executive director
Ariel Gilmore
hey! My name is Ariel Gilmore and I attend Cypress Woods High School. I am one of the Creative co-leads. I joined the organization because I saw things that were happening in my community that I was appalled by, and I wanted to take action to fix those things. Before joining I felt hopeless and as though nothing would change, however, being in this organization taught me that we need to be the change to make things better.

Hi! I’m Cheryl Lee, one of the logistics co-leads. I joined the organization because I was still new to the world of activism and saw a strong knit community of youth activists in MFOLH! Everyone seemed really open and driven to accomplish their goals, whether that be activism related or not.
