Hello Area 1 DECA! My name is Lucy Naiman. I am a senior at Sehome High School, I‘m a fourth year DECA member, and I am thrilled to be the 2025/2026 Area 1 President! This year I am so excited to meet many Area 1 members and listen to their ideas on how to improve Washington DECA.

It’s been a week since our last SCDC and I couldn’t be more proud of everything this team has accomplished! It’s sad to say goodbye but I know great things are to come, so thank you to everyone who made SCDC possible and beyond special💙

HAPPY CTE MONTH!!

I recently had the amazing opportunity of being able to go to the capital and advocate for CTSOs to our legislators! Expressing how important and impactful it is to students across our state to have CTE within our districts!! I learned so many amazing things and had the time of my life with my fellow state officers and other amazing CTSO officers!😁🩵

I had an amazing time at WRLC! This conference had so much to offer, with a balance of amazing learning and wonderful memories! It was so great seeing some familiar and new faces, getting to sing karaoke, attend the workshops, and connect with so many amazing DECA members!

Team Accelerate recently participated in Advocacy Day, where we partnered with various other CTSOs to advocate for CTE funding! I had the opportunity to meet with legislators in Olympia, along with workers from the OSPI to not only educate and advocate for our organization, but to learn about them.
